Chances are if you've driven through downtown Emporia this past week, you've noticed some changes to one of the older buildings on Commerical Street.

The Capitol Federal building at 6th and Commercial is getting a much needed upgrade to its historic windows. Already two frames have been replaced since the project began last week. Branch manager Claire Spellman says it was beyond time to replace the windows.

The building was originally constructed in the 1920s and Capitol Federal moved into the site in 1973. The new windows will not only help the aesthetics of the building but will also allow for more energy efficiency.

Spellman says the project hasn't interrupted the branch's ability to serve its customers.

Six windows are being replaced, including all five on the south side facing 6th Avenue and the window above the main entrance on the west. Spellman says the investment by Capitol Federal on the project is another example of the company investing in the communities they serve. The project isanticipated to becompleted by early July.
