A grant has finally been approved to take down the old Carnation milk plant here in Sheridan. There's been a lot of pictures and even an aerial video of it posted here lately.

ounds like all the tax paying citizens of the USA get to pay for it. :(
 
AMEN, it has been a long time in the making. I've often feared it would come crashing down on its own before someone would tear it down.
 
I nominate RBnSC to be in charge of demo... and with some help from other YTer's, I'm sure they could get it down for less money than that. :)

Good it's coming down ... though it does make for some neat photos.
 
All the tax paying citizens sit still for these nonsense regulations like the one involving lead paint. My brother wanted to buy it and tear it down at his own expense so he could redevelop the lot himself. They would have actually made some money from that. He had plans to grind up all the block and bricks for gravel,but they couldn't let him do it because of the lead paint and asbestos.
 
Here's a good one Old time rhyme
A Can of
Carnation milk is best of all;
no teats to pull, no poop to haul.
Got no nasty tail to switch;
just poke two holes in the son-of-a-itch!"
 
just bus a bunch of Detroiters up there and they'd have it stripped in a day or 2. :lol: Reclaimed bricks and all.
 
A Canadian company has moved in here in central Ohio and they take those red bricks and grind them up. Add some sand and clay to make infield material for college and high school ball diamonds.Seem like nice people.

And there you have it. The reason that they won't sell it and why they needed a grant from the federal government.

We have a two buildings in our county seat that either need renovated or torn down. Both have lead paint and Asbestos. The county seat can't afford it. The town can't afford it. So what to do? They tried selling them with no takers. They tried getting one declared an historic site so they could go after federal money to renovate them. That failed. So eventually the city will have to pay to tear em down. But they are going to have a heck of a time paying for it. Oh and the one building was taken after the business folded up and was a tax seizure.

So they are going to put a big balloon around the building to contain all the terrible dust and air born debris from the demolition right. I doesn't look that bad to refurbish and then use.
 
The roof's pretty well gone. RayP(Mi) posted a link to a video of a drone fly over not long ago. It doesn't look as bad from the ground as it does from the air.

t the very least, the proceeds of the sale of the cleaned site should go back into the coffers of the tax payers that paid for the clean up......but they already said that it won't.
 
There are a two condemned buildings in Manitowoc (next town south of TR on the lake) that are coming down.

One a factory(Mirro- aluminum goods) that was left to rot(abandoned by company(2003?), sold multiple times since(all claiming to clean it up before selling again) , was looted of anything worth anything. The city finally got a hold of the last owner who started demo, till ran out of funds(around last year), now city is talking finishing the project.

The other is a mall building that again was abandoned and vandalized. The last store left two or three(maybe more already) years ago. Seagulls took over. City condemned place, demo going along nice last time I was through(rumors its the same outfit that demoed/ salvaged the Hamilton complex in town this last year).
