RAMSEY TOWN HALL, Ramsey, Minnesota <br />dal <br />dal dal <br />There have been some attempts to repair <br />some of the damaged brick in several places. <br />Several of the repairs are closer to the <br />concrete foundation on the Southern <br />elevation. However, rather than replacing the <br />brick that was broken off, concrete or mortar <br />was used to fill in the broken pieces. <br />Figure 21 — Mortar Replacement to Fill Voids <br />Figure 22 — Mortar Replacement LO riii VOIDS <br />In one location, area of brick that was <br />smeared with mortar on the rear elevation. <br />The concrete curb that is located around the <br />base of the North, South, and West elevations <br />is most likely covering up deteriorated brick. <br />Figure 23 — Deteriorated Brick with Mortar <br />There are a couple of bricks that look like they <br />were replaced with a different type of brick. <br />The new bricks don't have the same coloring <br />as the Chaska brick; they have more hints of <br />red than yellow. These replacement bricks <br />look like they have been damaged, which <br />implies that they aren't as strong as the <br />original Chaska brick. <br />There is a pipe that runs from the basement <br />to the exterior on the North elevation. The <br />area around the pipe was not filled in, so there <br />is currently a hole in the wall that exposes the <br />wood structure. <br />Figure 23 — Replacement Bricks <br />In addition to cracked brick and mismatched <br />mortar, the chimney is missing a cap. <br />Ramsey Town Hall 7 <br />
