The city of Camden may purchase the building atop which the King Hagler Clock Towers sits at the corner of Broad and Rutledge streets. Council met Tuesday at 6:30 p.m., after the Chronicle-Independent went to press and, among many agenda items, was set to consider first reading of an ordinance authorizing the purchase. The building, at 950 Broad St., which currently houses the Camden Bargain Basket thrift shop, was known for many years as the home of B.C. Moore’s department store.
