Bricks Away!

The bricks in our first wave brick order (i.e. every brick inscription provided between 2002 and July 2006) have just left the Brick Markers facility in Florida! The MSP will track the progress of the brick shipment as it moves up towards Trumansburg.

Once in the Village, the bricks will be stored at the Village DPW site on Corey Street until they can be installed next summer. However, with an expected arrival date of November 27th 2006, there is a possiblity that some of the engraved bricks will be featured in the empty brick arch in front of the Rongovian Embassy to the U.S.A. That arch was left empty because part of it borders a mountable curb designed to hold delivery trucks. The bricks for that section of the arch are reinforced ones designed for the extra weight of a car/truck. However, since only part of the arch is meant to act as a car mount, engraved bricks can go there.

Any updates will be posted on this blog.
