Douglas ??????
Went through DeKalb yesterday. No work on tearing down Douglas yet. Has this been put on the shelf? If you do not start now, it will be a cluster in August for the start of school. Any insight?

They project had to be approved before they could start demolition. I believe it was approved sometime in the middle to late June.

RE: Douglas ??????
It does not need to be a "cluster"...
Simply put a fence around it and start tearing it down this fall. Then begin construction on the grounds in the spring when the weather breaks.

Construction shows progress. This is a high-visibility location and good for NIU's image IMO>

Is abspestosis a distant cousin of asbestos or is it Shantone's girlfriend's Aunt known as halitosis?

If you breathe in too much abspestosis, you'll need to call the ambalampse.

Either the state or EPA has to be holding it up.

They are planning on keeping Douglas open. The fence is up to keep students inside and prevent them from going home on the weekends.

NIU officials had hoped to complete the demolition project by November, but Nicklas said the start of demolition has been delayed until October because state bodies had to review the project before it began. Crews currently are removing asbestos throughout the 51-year-old building. Demolition of the building will be done in stages rather than all at once.

I snapped 30+ photos of Death Row Douglas today hoping to be the last one to shoot photos of Douglas pre-demolition and acquire my 15 seconds of e-fame. So much for that.
