Coming down
Masterson Excavation of Bristol made quick work of the former diner building on Merchants Row in Middlebury this morning. The three-man crew started knocking down the three-room structure about 7 a.m. on Friday and had completely flattened the building within two hours. Company owner Josh Masterson drove the excavator and said he took special care not to damage the neighboring church.
Town Hall Theater, which has owned the structure since 2018, cleared the site in order to expand the theater to make way for more rehearsal and storage space that will enable THT to become a regional performance hub.

Job well done
