LITTLE ROCK, AR -- Steps to demolish an empty Little Rock building -- that neighbors say turned into a homeless camp -- are underway.

Today crews could be seen working on asbestos removal at the West Markham Professional Building that's located at the intersection of Markham and Tyler.

Fox 16 first reported on this issue last week when neighbors complained about the homeless leaving behind trash.

Residents also noticed other problems in the area and complained about being harassed by the homeless and seeing people in the parking lot having sex.

One woman, living nearby who didn't want to be identified, said, "This is a tremendous relief because we have had no one to back us up until you did a report the other night and finally we see some movement on this property."

The City of Little Rock is working with the property owner to get the building demolished and bring new development to this area.

An Idaho demolition contractor blowed up the Metrodome real good this morning. They touched off the blast about 7:30 a.m., after closing the streets around the Metrodome and cordoning off a safety area in the neighborhood.

The explosive demolition went off without a hitch, according to Mortenson Construction vice president John Wood. The blast was meant to bring down only the upper ring of the structure, after an expected collapse as that was being demolished last week. It was a complete success. It is laying on the ground, Wood said. That was mission accomplished It went exactly as planned.

You can hear the blast here:

Wood said the crew removed 24 columns within the building using 84 charges of conventional dynamite.

Mortenson called in the explosives experts after work was halted by the partial collapse on Monday, Wood said:

As the demolition crews were working on the ring beam with more conventional demolition equipment, a section on this east side came to the ground in an out of sequence and unplanned event. We knew there was some potential of that But when that occurred, we recognized we had to take a different approach to the demolition of a remaining beam.

Its the second time demolition crews have used explosives on the Metrodome. They took out the cables that held up the roof with explosives on Feb. 2.

Dont count on any more, Wood said. We think this will be the last use of explosives in the demolition process. From this point forward, it should be a pretty conventional approach.

Heres the MSFA statement on the blast:

Tim Nelson is a general assignment reporter for Minnesota Public Radio News, and a 20-year veteran of local news. Hes been covering the Vikings stadium issue since 2011.
