3700 Nicollet Demolition Update

Filed Under 3700 nicollet, affordable housing, redevelopment | Leave a Comment

As far as an update, the building is gone. The last of it was demolished about noon Wednesday. I spoke with my general contractor and understand that the work of hauling away the debris and removing the footings will go into next week.

Post completion of the demolition, and until commencement of construction of the new building, I’m planning to leave the chain link construction fence around the demolition site. We’ll also continue hiring the service which removes snow and maintains the site.
