Bye-bye Bryan Christmas decorations

As promised, down­town Bryan Christ­mas dec­o­ra­tions started com­ing down this week, so they could clear the way for the cour­t­house roof and tower repair project that is set to be begin after the first of the year. The nearly $1.5 mil­lion dol­lar restora­tion will repair in exte­rior and inte­rior of the tur­rets, bal­conies, chim­neys, repair­ing the areas of the main roof around those struc­tures, and a new flag­pole and stand to go on top of the courthouse.
