Crews have begun removing nonoriginal elements from the Woolworth façade, unveiling the building’s original 1928 brickwork. Using careful, low-impact methods, the team has lifted paint layers and dismantled added materials to expose intact masonry beneath.
The clearance of outdated veneers makes way for the return of the black-and-gold Woolworth sign—a landmark feature originally installed in 1928. The restored façade strengthens the visual cohesion of the 600 Block and brings historic detail back into public view.
