NOTES
Additional Information:"The Bridgeport Town Hall was built around 1920. The building is one story high and consists of a slightly taller rear portion, and a front portion which telescopes out. Both sections are front-gabled and clad in vinyl siding. Window placement appears to be original, and most of the windows appear to be two-over-one double hungs with aluminium storm windows. A modern steel entry door is located in the front portion; the roof extends down over the door to form a small entry porch. The building has a modern metal roof.

The interior of the Town Hall was not accessible during the survey. Based on the limited view through a side window, the space appears to be subdivided into smaller office-style rooms with drywall and drop ceilings." --Architecture/History Survey prepared by Great Lakes Archaeological Research Center, Inc.
