Demolition of Bailes/Woolworth Building Set for Monday (Finally)

Demolition of the Bailes/Woolworth building in Anderson is finally set to get under way Monday morning beginning at 9 a.m.

Anderson County Administrator Rusty Burns said the Miami-based salvage company has at last removed all potential barriers to as clean a take down as possible.

"It should begin Monday morning at 9," said Burns, acknowledging the project has taken longer than initially expected. 

The first stage will involve pushing down the Woolworth Building into what is left of the Bailes building.
