This mural recreates the look of the 1948 Robert-Judson Lumber Company Millworks Building. The saying "measure twice, cut once, -was very much the rule when employee of 54 years Francis Nixon worked here. The building was the site of custom woodworking and sheet metal production that created quality products for the community. Roberts-Judson remains one of the oldest continuing businesses in Cuba.
