OAK RIDGE (WATE) - Demolition of the K-31 Building began Wednesday in Oak Ridge's East Tennessee Technology Park.

The two-story, 750,000 square foot building began operations in 1951, and was used to enrich uranium for defense and commercial purposes. It was shut down in 1985.

Crews removed most of the hazardous materials from the building's interior in 2005.

This is the fourth of five gaseous diffusion buildings at the former uranium enrichment site to be demolished.

Crews worked this summer to accelerate K-31's demolition five months ahead of its original proposed schedule. The process included asbestos abatement, removing exterior transite paneling, disconnecting the building's power sources and completing pollution prevention efforts such as filling interior and exterior storm drains.

Demolition begins on K-31 building in Oak Ridge

From a distance, the simple gabled roofs and plain brick and lapped siding of the three Line K models offered by K. Hovnanian Homes at Willowsford in Loudoun County appear to be standard fare for a new home community in the Washington area.

Then you get closer, and differences emerge.

The brick is not the red Virginia clay you see almost everywhere its tan, and one house doesnt have brick at all. The facade incorporates charcoal-colored, cast stone that looks like granite. The windows have unusual proportions theyre tall and thin. There are no shutters, and the flat roof and oversized square columns of the front porch give them a boxy look. One house has large, stylized brackets to support the roof overhang.

Thats the warm-up.

Once inside, the differences are so pronounced you realize that these houses are unlike anything currently (and probably ever) offered by a production home builder in the Washington market. Ranging in size from 4,050 to 5,450 square feet with a base price of $1.2 million to $1.29 million that includes a finished basement, the houses were designed by the Piet Boon Group, a Dutch firm, which accounts in part for their very different look. The design team was led by Piet Boon and Karin Meyn, Boons business and design partner for nearly 30 years. Each model has a Dutch name: Noorderwind, Oostenwind and Zuiderwind.

The interiors are unabashedly modern in style, with a level of workmanship and quality of materials that typify high-end, one-of-a-kind, custom-built houses, not production ones. All the traditional Colonial Georgian styled details that have been mainstays of the new home market in this area for decades the three- and four-piece crown moldings, the dark wood stair rails with white balusters, the authentic Colonial era wall colors, the six-paneled doors, the double-hung windows with real or fake dividers are completely absent.

Instead all the walls are white, the floors are black, the trim is minimal, the windows are eight or 10 feet high (depending on the model) and run down to the floor line, and the doors are as high as the windows. Multiple windows across the entire back bring nature inside while creating a comfortable and surprising degree of coziness in these big houses with big rooms. The spare and simple interior produces a calming, almost Zen-like ambience that is completely unexpected, but a Boon-Meyn signature. As the designers have often said of their work, What you see is not design, but feeling.

Reimagined interior

In all three houses, the layout of the main living area is essentially the same; the difference is the location of the master suite (first or second floor), the location of the other bedrooms (first or second floor) and the number of bedrooms (three or four). Unlike most furnished model homes, these are not loaded with options. What you see, for the most part, is what you get in the base price.

The Kalona Council voted 5-0 Monday night Oct. 6 to make a $90,000 grant application to the Washington County Riverboat Foundation (WCRF) to help finance improvements to the City Hall, Community/Rec Building and Elements.

The proposed $140,000 in improvements calls for $45,000 in local sales tax and $5,000 from the recreation budget as the citys match funds.

Included in the project is $23,730 for renovation of the lower level (this includes paint, installing a drop ceiling and some painting in halls, TV room and dance area) of the Rec Building, $81,270 for the Youth Area that includes where Elements is now located and $35,000 for a new entry way to City Hall.

City Administrator Ryan Schlabaugh said that representatives of Elements and the Washington Y have been in on the planning process.

New construction will include installation of a window to oversee the main area, removal of paneling and review quality of walls, install a 36-inch wall separating the computer lab and main area, installation of a 7-inch desk on east wall, installation of cabinetry and counter top and other necessary construction including installing drop ceiling, new carpet, painting, electrical upgrade and air conditioning.

Schlabaugh said the improvements would make it feasible for the Y to have programs at the Community/Rec Building. The Parks & Recreation Board, Elements and Y have been in on the planning stages.

Schlabaugh said these are some much needed improvements and offer a good programing area with a potential relationship of the Washington Y and Elements working together in the old library area.

Schlabaugh added that these needed improvements would not interfere with plans for potential work agreement with Mid-Prairie Schools on a joint Recreation area when a new gym is constructed for the M-P Middle School.

Schlabaugh added the Community/Rec Building $90,000 grant application would be the only grant application to WCRF for the fall round of funding.

DALLAS (AP) The Fort Worth, Texas, company Cleaning Guys has dealt with hazardous spills. It has cleared bloody crime scenes, including some that involved HIV.

But Garrett Eison, the company's operations manager, said he was initially anxious when the company agreed to take on a job others were hesitant to do: cleaning up the Dallas apartment where an Ebola patient stayed.
