The northeast corner or the property is nearly clear, with only the two historic walls that they plan to retain.

The big remaining question is, what will happen to the five-story building? Their historic preservation plan showed tentative plans to demolish it. But there it stands--distinctly un-demolished.

I asked Dan Cohen, President of AC Development Company, what their plans were for the building. He reported that they are "currently studying whether or not to adaptively reuse the building and so it is not being demolished at this time. If we keep it, it would be completely rehabilitated, inside and out." He added that "we are very close to finishing demolition and now are processing the materials – we are diverting as much as we can from landfills by either processing materials so they can be reused on site for construction or recycling them for reuse by others."
