New Buildings For 9 Months
Norwelk use the only one of the
tour larger cities in Fairdeld Coun-
ty whose building activities tor the
tint nine months of the present your

respondi period oi last year.
While building llcti1ltlcs ln Bridge-
port. Denbury and B‘omtord have
experienced a decided slump In the
three-quarter period extending from
January to September. Norwelk was
not only holding its own but forged
almost a hel million dollars ahead
or its record uring the sumo period
in 1925.
Building in Norwalk during the
nine months was nearly three times
greater than it was in Denbury.
while iurther significance can be
found in the figures which show that
in spite of the dlitercnco In popula-
tion and area. Norwalk's activities
more than ravonbly compared “Jib
those of Bridgeport and Stamtord.
The increase in building activities
in Norwalk during this nine months
partod is particularly a distinguish-
od.~sttalnnsent when it is realised
that national reports show bulldlng

out the country this year amounts
to four and one-half per cent. Ite-
ports show that In September last
building permits in «I towns select-
ed in the country 'were sixteen per
cent below those of September.
1925. whereas Connecticut figures
for September show a. gain or two
per cent over the same month in
1926.
