Lately, in Corinna... August 25, 2000 |

Thursday, the Beauregard building that once housed
Mabel Holbrook's Store was demolished. The excavator quickly removed
most of the back. However, it took a while to bring down the front. In
the pictures below you can see how close the building was to the street
and the utility wires in front. They were very careful about stopping
traffic while the excavator worked. That meant only a few minutes work
before stopping to let the accumulated traffic go through.
These pictures are of the last moments as the
front came down. They did neat work. Shortly after the last photo was
taken one worker picked up the few bits of debris that fell to the
sidewalk. Nothing came out into the street. |
