Dennis DeCoff, 78, watches the old demolition of the VA Cutoff Road Bridge from its replacement over the White River near his home in Hartford Village, Vt., on Wednesday, Dec. 18, 2024. โBack when I moved here in โ59, things were a lot different,โ said DeCoff. โThis was the main drag,โ he said pointing north to Maple Street. โThere was no interstate and the mills were going strong.โ (Valley News – James M.
