Anyone driving through Waterbury, Connecticut, sees the 245 foot clock tower that is part of Union Station and the headquarters of the Waterbury Republican-American newspaper. The structure was erected in 1909. It was designed by the noted architectural firm McKim, Mead and White.
The newspaper business was sold earlier this year to the Hearst group. There have been proposals to redevelop the property into a mix of 38 luxury apartments, office space and retail, potentially including a high-end restaurant. The daily newspaper would continue to occupy some of the building.
