Attempts made to tear down 1920s-era tourist information booth at the Bourne Rotary. Here's the latest.

BOURNE — A 1920s-era Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce tourist information booth at the Bourne Bridge faces demolition, due to modernization plans for a Cumberland Farms convenience store and gas station.

But, for the moment, the shed-like structure has been declared a historic, significant building, by the Bourne Historical Commission last Thursday.

The information booth is entitled to a demolition day hearing because it's more than 75 years old, according to a town bylaw, said Carl Georgeson, Bourne Historical Commission member.

The demolition delay hearing will be held at 10 a.m., Jan. 10 at the Bourne Historical Center at 30 Keene St.
