The Jones Library is an historic landmark and anchor in the downtown. Its distinctive design and rich history make it an important part of the historic downtown. The chimneys are becoming a safety risk, with several areas crumbling and becoming unstable. General integrity is deteriorating. The Jones Library has six chimneys. All are in various states of need. Work will include replacement and re-pointing of crowns, removal, replication and replacement of decorative caps, liner repairs, and veneer re-pointing. Use of staging and crane services are a large portion of the cost. As in all cases of private uses of CPA funds, an historic preservation restriction on this building and property will need to be transferred to the Town.
