The borough of Naugatuck has purchased for $1.1 million the former Bank of America building at 275 Church St.
Naugatuck Mayor N. Warren “Pete” Hess said the use of the newly acquired property will be determined by the Board of Mayor and Burgesses at its next meeting on Oct. 4. The property will likely be used for a a variety of community events, he said.
Hess said that purchasing the property, which includes parking in downtown Naugatuck, allows the borough to “determine the destiny” of the site rather than leave it up to the open market.
