Fairfax : Refurbishing Under Way

Workmen have stripped the facades from several storefronts along Fairfax Avenue as part of a redevelopment project sponsored by the Vitalize Fairfax Project.

Although the scheduled planting of palm trees has been postponed so that underground utility installations can be rerouted, painting, water blasting and other work is under way.

Work will be suspended from April 14 to 23 so as not to interfere with Passover shopping, a spokesman for Vitalize Fairfax said.
