GENEVA Demolition of the former Cetron factory building began Monday, city officials said.

Demolition is expected to take several weeks at the site of the former factory at 715 Hamilton St., Geneva. Richards Street will be closed from Hamilton to Peyton streets during construction hours, officials said.

According to the demolition permit, Property Recycling Service Corp of North Aurora is doing the work for $128,000. The property owner is the Marquette Companies of Naperville, also according to the permit.

The Marquette Companies proposed to build a five-story, multi-use building with a parking structure. The former Cetron factory had made light bulbs.

The complex would include 140 single-room units, 60 two-room units, 6,500 square feet of retail and restaurant space, and 300 parking spaces, officials said. The company had a formal concept review at a Committee of the Whole meeting in summer 2014, but no final action has been taken, officials said.

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS SF) There was a time when the popular preference for doing away with Candlestick Park was for a spectacular implosion, much like has been done with other stadiums with the signature moment captured in videos and photos.

However, with the decision to dismantle the Stick piece-by-piece instead of in one fell swoop, the slow-motion disintegration is providing many moments and images to record as longtime fans reflect on end of the Candlestick era.

As March comes to an end, the demolition of the stadium recalls the days some 45 years ago, when the construction was under way to enclose the open-ended stadium to accommodate the 49ers, who ended their run at Kezar Stadium with the end of the 1970 season.

One drone pilot also got an up-close look at the demolition; paired with the Journey song Lights another fan favorite and the effect could be tear-jerking for the legions of former Candlestick denizens.

The contractor estimates the demolition to be complete by May to make way for a development project that will include a hotel, shopping center and residential units.

ARDMORE, OK -- The demolition of an unsightly Ardmore landmark that has stood for more than 40 years began Monday.

Crews began tearing down the Chickasaw Towers this afternoon.

Built in 1973, the towers helped the city meet the need for low income housing.

Since the building is on tribal land, the Chickasaw Nation has final say as to what will take it's place.

Tribe leaders say demolition will take two to four weeks.
