The Wakefield Memorial Building, one of Wakefield's most important assets, will be re-born. After the building suffered years of neglect, Mr. Marvin Suomi, a graduate of Wakefield High School, will construct a new building better suited for the community of Wakefield today. Two independent structural engineering firms have found the current building to be structurally unsound and past the point of feasible restoration. Estimates to restore the current building exceed $16 Million. A new, smaller, energy efficient/sustainable building will serve as an architectural landmark and gathering place for the community of Wakefield. It will house the City offices, the City library, multi-purpose event space, a pool, a sauna, and possibly an indoor theatre and incubator space for new industry.
