TULSA, Oklahoma -

A piece of Tulsa history is set for demolition. The city said the pedestrian bridge over Riverside Drive must come down this weekend.

That means shutting down Riverside between 21st and 31st; this project marks the beginning of more than two years' worth of detours.

The 78-year-old bridge is crumbling and a danger to drivers. The city's engineer said a few weeks ago a piece of concrete broke off and busted a driver's windshield.

Tulsa resident Rachel Boyce said the bridge is a landmark along Riverside Drive.

I think this is a very important part scenically and historically to Tulsa, she said.

The stamp on the side of the pedestrian bridge shows it was built in 1937.

When Boyce heard the bridge would be coming down this weekend, she knew she needed to get her camera and take some pictures.

The bridge, after all, may be why she's here today.

It actually goes way back in my family. My parents, 35 years ago, had their first kiss right on the bridge, she said.

Demolition Of Riverside Pedestrian Bridge First Of Many Upcoming Detours

Feb. 25, 2015, 4 a.m.

THE walls are coming down.

THE walls are coming down.

Demolition has started at the former Bonlac factory in Camperdown in preparation for a new $120m milk powder facility.

Demolition began this week on the former Bonlac dairy factory in Camperdown as the resurgence of the south-west dairy industry stepped up a gear.

Most of the old factory is being removed to clear the way for construction of Camperdown Dairy Internationals (CDI) $120 million milk and nutritional powder plant.

The 36-metre-high Niro building, which has dominated Camperdowns western skyline since 1973, is expected to be gone completely by the end of this week.

CDI chief operating officer Tony Addinsall said a long reach excavator was being used to demolish the high sections of the Niro building, so named for the milk drying equipment used in the building.

Mr Addinsall said former cheese rooms and maintenance facilities would also be cleared from the site as part of the demolition project.

Most of the old Bonlac sheds will go, he said.

Demolition marks beginning of new era at Camperdown factory

The Ideal Forging buildings in the downtown may be demolished in the next few weeks but that doesnt mean the retail and housing proposed for the site will be constructed soon.

Representatives of a proposed 250-unit condominium building, Greenway Commons, are scheduled to meet with town building officials today to plan the demolition of the Ideal Forging buildings. The plan involves a $70 million retail and residential complex in the Southington downtown.

Building Department John Smigel said a representative would present some of the documentation tomorrow needed for a demolition permit.

Theyre still working on giving us the required paperwork, he said.

Meridian Development Partners, a firm from New York, owns the property. The company could not be reached for comment Wednesday.

The project to use the former factory complex between Mill and Center streets has been in the preliminary stages for about a decade.

The industrial site also required environmental remediation. In 2013, Weston Solutions Inc., an environmental consultant and redevelopment advisor, supervised the removal of manufacturing chemicals, oils and florescent light ballasts on the site. Groundwater remediation was done in the same year.

Some of the buildings have already been torn down. Smigel said the demolition permit currently requested would mean the destruction of five main buildings and three or four smaller accessory buildings.

Theres still more cleanup needed on the property though, according to Town Council Chairman Michael Riccio. A special tax district was formed called the Greenway Commons Improvement District that will provide remediation funding in return for property tax sharing between the town and the state. The tax district helps to fund projects that are difficult to finance privately.

Once Meridian has the demolition permit, the buildings can come down and remediation done. But Riccio said the company will likely wait for the market to improve before starting work.

Saying he had serious concerns about the city's oversight of demolitions, City Controller Alan Butkovitz subpoenaed voluminous documents from the Department of Licenses and Inspections on Monday.

In a letter to L&I Commissioner Carlton Williams, Butkovitz said he was launching an investigation into the department's adherence to stringent safety rules enacted after the Center City building collapse that killed six people in 2013.

His action comes one day after The Inquirer reported that L&I allowed an illegal demolition at 26th and Poplar Streets last year. City inspectors say the contractor at that site used some of the unsafe and discredited techniques that caused the deadly collapse at 22d and Market Streets.

The Inquirer reported that tough new rules guiding demolitions were ignored at the Poplar Street site.

"This is a serious concern and one that needs to be addressed immediately to ensure public safety is not jeopardized," Butkovitz wrote to Williams.

He demanded that the department provide his office with records of demolitions and safety plans from 2013 and 2014; a list of employees who performed and oversaw inspections of demolition sites; information on overtime costs; and internal correspondence among 30 department employees, Williams, and his top lieutenant, Scott Mulderig.

Mulderig, director of emergency services for L&I, was reassigned this month after The Inquirer raised questions about demolitions that took place on his watch.

Williams has declined to comment. A spokesman for the Nutter administration said Monday that city officials would cooperate with the controller's inquiry.

On Sunday, The Inquirer reported that Ashaw Demolition of Oxford Circle took down five buildings at 26th and Poplar in the spring and summer of 2014 without obtaining required permits.

L&I's demolition papers sought

ARDMORE >> If Lower Merion is going to roll the dice on demolition of two buildings in Ardmores historic business district, it wants to hedge its bet.

Although the votes were clearly there Wednesday night to support the recommendation of their historical architectural review board to permit a tear-down, commissioners tabled action on issuing a certificate of appropriateness until March 4.

By then, they want to see a terms sheet for the lease the owners of two late 19th-century buildings at 47 and 53-55 Cricket Ave. say they are willing to enter into for the resulting space to be used as temporary parking during construction of Dranoff Properties One Ardmore Place project on the municipal Cricket Avenue Parking Lot.

Their hesitation was somewhat similar to HARBs initial qualms when a formal application for demolition was first before it earlier this month.

The advisory board ultimately made the recommendation with several conditions, including negotiation of a lease with either the township or downtown business authority, The Ardmore Initiative, to extend the use for public parking until owners Brad Paul and Louis Barson are ready to begin redevelopment of the new gap in the Cricket Avenue streetscape.

In deferring action, commissioners said they wanted to divide the issues. A decision on demolition of 47 Cricket, a part of the former Gillanes Tavern complex (now 43 Cricket Bar and Restaurant), and 53-55, the former Cardones Printing building, should be based on the reasons justifying the loss of the two Class 1 historic resources, they said. A lease of the space should be a separate matter.

At the same time, most shared HARBs concern that the space not sit empty indefinitely, or end up a private parking lot.

Members of HARB who spoke at the meeting said it was an anguishing decision to recommend removal of Class 1 properties. In Lower Merions two-tiered historic preservation designation, Class 1 properties may only be demolished by permission of the board of commissioners.

Philip Franks said, however, that there are significant hurdles to renovation of the structures for reuse. In meeting with HARB, Paul and a new development partner, Pete Staz, who owns and has renovated the neighboring pucciManuli/Viking Pastries building, showed a sketch for a three-story, multi-use building that could eventually fill the gap.

We know were taking a gamble. . . . Were rolling the dice, Franks said, but HARB is looking for the new development to be a modern building, a mixed-use building, something that is going to help infuse more energy into the historic district. Continued...

Admitting that it was the mistake of the City Municipal Corporation to take up the Master Plan project without adequate funds for the project, Municipal Commissioner, S.G. Rajashekhar has announced that henceforth, no demolition would be carried out in the city without the availability of funds for the project.

Participating in Meet the Press programme here on Monday, he said that the Corporation has no funds to take up the Master Plan project and continuing demolition of buildings was not a good idea.

After demolition, the Corporation has to pay compensation to building owners if is the private property, after the demolition, the funds are needed for constructing roads and pavements on the widened area. This requires huge amount of funds which the Corporation does not have, Mr. Rajashekhar said.

Assuring that all the sixteen roads taken up under the Master Plan project for widening would be done in phased manner, he said that the Corporation has submitted a proposal of Rs. 600 crore to the government that required for the mega project.

Stating that Corporation has taken public health aspect seriously, he said that in that regard, over 70 per cent pigs have been shifted out of the city limits to prevent spreading of any contagious diseases.

To a question, he said that the Corporation has deployed most of the workers to clean the city for coming Navaraspur Utsav which would be held from February 27 for three days.

On the demand for constructing a marriage hall to provide the hall at an affordable price for people here, Mr. Rajashekhar assured to check the possibility within the available resources.

Helpline

Municipal Commissioner, S.G. Rajashekhar has assured that from March 1, a roundtheclock working helpline number would be started for people to get their civil problem addressed.

He also said that though the Corporation already has three helpline numbers: 08352278539,278536 and 222474, but they are not 24/7 active. In grievances related to street lights, people could contact: 08352646328,277758 and 8971712018.
