This morning the excavator was digging out the foundation walls along the outside of the building. I expected them to leave that concrete in place and just cover it up, but they were digging it out. It appeared that the entire concrete pad under the south wing had been removed and trucked away.
I made a final stop this afternoon during a brief snow shower. You can see that the piles of debris from the north wing were gone and only two little bits of the wall were left. It should not take too long to remove both the walls and the pad.
I may update this post if demolition continues this week.
There is not much on the calender this week, but I have heard that the Tractor Supply will open Saturday--or maybe Friday--I have heard both. Embers said that they will be revealing their new front this week. I can see work going on in what was the Doghouse, but do not know when it will be complete. I keep checking the Amtrak stop but have not seen any changes there for a week. And I was wrong about the Horton Building.
Update: Below is a picture taken about 10:00 on Wednesday (3-13-13) from about the same spot as the last picture. The walls are gone and the concrete pad is being ripped up.
