Masonry work continues at Belknap County Courthouse to restore the facade of the 130-year-old building. Another layer of brick was recently found during the renovations, the first in the building's history. "I guess that's what you get for 130 years of wear and tear," wrote Belknap County Facilities Director Jon Bossey in an emailed statement. "Some very much needed work." Construction is expected to be complete no later than Nov. 30, according to Bossey. The courthouse is open for all normal operations throughout the project.
