Demolition is still underway in Forsyth Library. The crane has been busy for the last two weeks moving large amounts of debris from tearing out the drywall, ducts, and materials from the former hallway of offices on lower level. Each morning, the crane lowers down an empty bin through the hole in the roof past the three stories of library to place the empty bin on the lower level of the building, ready for loading. Crews load the bin with debris and once it’s full, the crane operator lifts the bin up and out, skillfully maneuvering the loaded bin outside the building for disposal. Again and again.
It’s quite a sight to see a heavy bin dangling in midair as the crews use the crane to remove some of the last loads of debris from this phase one of the renovation. We are nearing the end of the demolition stage. Next month, some of the new walls will be framed up.
