The former ABC cinema site branded as the "grot spot" of Tunbridge Wells is in the final stages of demolition.

The site on the corner of Mount Pleasant Road and Church Road has been an eyesore for residents since it closed in 2000 and concerns began to mount about the lack of action.

Demolition work began in July after Tunbridge Wells Borough Council chiefs voted to take legal actions against the owners and issued a Section 215 notice, meaning they could have been forced to demolish the building if work did not begin before.

This week diggers arrived to remove a brick structure and the owners - joint freeholders Carlyle Group and Bellhouse Joseph - said they are ahead of schedule and pleased with the progress being made.

It took some time, but demolition has come to abandoned properties around the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. corridor.

Last weekend, the first buildings were torn down with money Kinston received with a Community Development Block Grant in 2012. The city acquired $100,000 with the CDBG and matched the grant with an extra $25,000.

Kinston Planning Director Adam Short said there are currently 13 properties in the process of being demolished.

This is a good first step, but we have a lot to do in terms of demolition, Short said. Hopefully, this is a step in the right direction and will open the door for redevelopment by removing the impediments.

Short said six properties have bids on them with the remaining ones up for auction in the coming weeks. Short also said there could be more homes demolished in the future with a program amendment. The Kinston City Council approved additional properties to be removed in an August meeting.

In the next month or two, we should see the remaining seven properties coming down, Short said. With the homes were trying to add through the program amendment, it could be a little longer because theres an administrative process for the grant we have to go through to add to the project, but it wont slow down anything with the other demolition.

Rick Bostic, a local construction and demolition organization, was hired for a bid on a property on Blount Street. Anthony Gargano, a driver with the company, said the crew had started working on it Monday and plans to have it finished before the week is over.

We should probably have it done by (today), Gargano said. It depends on weather and the debris. If it rains, it wont prevent us from working, but it will slow down production when we take the debris to the landfill. Kinston City Manager Tony Sears said the demolition was high on the agenda and was glad to see it being executed.

This has been a top priority of city council for quite some time, Sears said. Were fortunate to have received some CDBG money to make this happen, and its just good to be able to use federal funds here in Kinston. To the citizens, this is an opportunity to see a return on their federal tax dollars.

Kinston City Councilman Sammy Aiken said while he liked the progress, there is still plenty to accomplish.

Demolition starts on St Martins Voluntary Library

Demolition of the remaining section of St Martins Voluntary Library starts today.

The library, located on the corner of Wilsons Road and Wades Avenue, was badly damaged in the earthquakes with the majority of it demolished under a Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority (CERA) Section 38 notice.

Christchurch City Council approved demolition of the remaining third of the facility last year due to damage and differential settlement.

Last week the Council approved funding for a replacement community centre on the site of the former library as part of its $40 million facilities repair and rebuild programme.

Community Facilities Rebuild Unit Manager Darren Moses says the new community centre will incorporate the voluntary library.

The voluntary library was highly valued by the St Martins and Opawa communities, so being able to integrate this service into the new centre is fantastic.

The demolition has been authorised to proceed and this is scheduled to take three weeks. We will be recycling material from the demolition wherever possible.

September 10, 2014

The former Carlton House at Eighth and Main streets in Stroudsburg may start coming down at the end of this month.

The project developer, Dein Properties, had hoped to begin demolition over the summer on the building, which was badly damaged by a December 2009 fire.

Dein faced some delays, however, because power lines had to be moved before demolition could begin.

In July, part of Eighth Street was closed for several days while a contractor for PPL Electric Utilities moved the lines away from the building.

Because of that delay, the contractor scheduled to demolish the building picked up other projects, further delaying work on the Carlton House, said George Strunk, general manager of Dein Properties.

Strunk estimates the demolition itself could take up to a month to complete.

A flat, vacant lot will be left once the building is removed.
