Update 3/20/2018 (Demolition)
Demolition is anticipated to commence mobilization in late March starting with building 4 (click here to see existing building map). The demolition team will work within the building footprint and leave the exterior walls of the building that face our abutting neighbors on Plimpton Ave. and Rock Court in place until substantially demolished, therefore screening our neighbors from the majority of activity on this specific building. Simultaneously the team will be working on a partial demolition of building 3 to expedite the opening of the primary construction entrance at Lenox Street / Norwood Plaza. The anticipated duration for the demolition of building 4 is approximately 4-6 weeks.
Update 3/20/2018 (Trucking Plan)
Update 5/19/2018 (Demolition)
Demolition started on or around May 7th, 2018 at the upper structure of building 3 to establish the construction entrance on Lenox Street at the Norwood Plaza. Building 4 upper structure demolition started on May 14th progressing from west to east while leaving a portion of the wall at our property line in place (safety will be the first priority) for as long as possible to help shield our abutting neighbors from as much of the activity as possible. Demolition of building 3 and 4 including the lower structure and foundation will continue for approximately 3-5 weeks. A machine specifically designed for concrete crushing will arrive on site in early June and continue a daily operation throughout the duration of demolition. We are utilizing various methods for dust control and will continue to monitor the effectiveness and make any necessary adjustments to keep the site and our neighbors as dust free as possible. Please understand that machines that create a rain like effect may create a mist in our neighbors back yards when we are demolishing close to the property line. The continued demolition of buildings 1 and 2 are anticipated to start in early July and will continue for approximately 5-8 weeks.
