POTSDAM – More than a dozen Potsdam businesses and professionals helped make it possible for North Country This Week to move to a larger facility at 4 Clarkson Ave.

The building, which most recently housed The Computer Guys, was completely gutted and renovated by Fearlbridge Builders, owned by Matt White of Winthrop. Crew members included Tim Aldous, Jr., foreman, along with Reed Whitman, Tim Aldous and Kyle Phippen.

During the past six months, they installed new windows, doors and roof. Inside, much of the electrical wiring was replaced and new lighting fixtures were installed, bathrooms and employee breakrooms were constructed and flooring was laid down. In the front part of the office, carpeting was removed to expose a Potsdam Sandstone floor.
