Title: Old West School Demo...
Post by: our2cents on December 19, 2009, 12:36:27 PM
They've started demo on the building today...

I took some pictures, but have to shrink them before I can post them.  I was kind of surprised to see them start this before 10 this morning...on a Saturday.

They have the entire south wing side of the building down.  I'd say more likely they have a deadline in their contract with the district of some sort...or so it seems.

I'm going to take more pics tomorrow when it's light again...and try to adjust the images to fit in this 300kb limit on here.

Thanks for posting that pic.  I ran out of time with trying to get the pic changed over.  I'm in the middle of a pc upgrade and between that and the family yanking me...I couldn't get it done this weekend.  The guy working the bucket last night was there until about 7pm.  I think he would have been there later, but it seems he had a track come off.  They were there today welding on it and they also brought a larger bucket in to clear a path.  Although they were only there a short while today.
