BERLIN — Plans to raze the former Woolworth’s department store building at 121 Main St. are moving forward and with it, a step toward the remaking of downtown Berlin’s look.

City councilors on Nov. 2 approved resolution 2026-21, authorizing an application to, and acceptance of, a $1 million Catalyst grant to “raze and remove 121 Main St. and make the land ready for redevelopment by installing water and sewer as well as create a new connection between Main and Pleasant Streets.”
