As the boards, walls and framework came crashing down this week at the old townhomes next to Signature Beach along Scenic Hwy. 98, onlookers held their cameras and cell phones high to capture the ongoing demolition.

All it took was one excavator, a few dump trucks, a little manpower and a few days to completely demolish the dilapidated townhomes that sat at 1940 Hwy. 98 W. With the buildings razed, developers can turn their attention from demolition to construction.

The new project, 1900 98, is being touted as the first Gulf-front condo development in six years and is slated to become a 12-story, 14-unit project. 1900 98 is being developed by Chancey Design Partnership.

Units in 1900 98, which feature panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico, boast almost 3,000-square feet and range in price from $1,475,000 for a unit on the third floor to $3,295,000 for an 11th floor penthouse.

To learn more about the project visit http://www.1900-98.com or visit the Preview Center located inside the Whitney Bank at 14060 Emerald Coast Pkwy. The preview center has large displays with floor plans, amenities and information about the contractors and developers.

There is even sand on the floor so "when you walk in it's like you are walking on the beach," Abbot told The Log.

Construction on 1900 98 is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2014.

Heavy demolition began this week at Lake Silver Elementary in Orlando (Katharine Putnam, OCPS / October 4, 2013)

Demolition has begun at Lake Silver Elementary, one of the dozens of Orange County schools with an "open campus" design. Lake Silver, located in College Park, is among a group of schools that will be reopened with a fully-enclosed design next year.

That design, which was seen as the height of safety and modernity in the 1940s and 50s, has become a safety concern in Central Florida in the wake of incidents like the shooting last year at Sandy Hook Elementary in Connecticut. (Sandy Hook did not have an open campus design, however).

The school's unique semi-sheltered, wheelchair-accessible playground for students with disabilities will be preserved in the rebuild. However, the school's auditorium, which is uncommon in elementary schools, will not survive.

Other Orange schools that are in planning, design or construction this year are: Apopka Elementary, Cypress Creek High, the Audubon Park relief school, the West Orange High relief school, Clay Springs elementary, Grand Avenue, an elementary in the Independence area, Lake Weston and Lake Whitney elementaries, Lovell Elementary, a new school in the Millenia Gardens area, Wheatley Elementary, Dr. Phillips, John Young, Little River, Ocoee, Pineloch, Shingle Creek, Spring Lake, Washington Shores and Waterford elementaries.

Demolition begins at Lake Silver Elementary in Orange

The news of the possible demolition of houses in Ogbomoso and the eventual bulldozing of Alebiosu Villa, my family house at Ojagbo, came to me as a rude shock. It all started when some of my children walked upstairs to tell me my house had been marked for demolition overnight. I got to know the reason for marking in the dead of the night was to avoid a possible attack on them by the people. After, a paper was brought to me to vacate my two-storey building of 24 rooms housing my wives, children, grand-children, great grand-children and some relations within 14 days. At this juncture, the Yoruba saying of Agbara ojo kitted my thought with a series of defence but decided to sheathe the sword. My pain is my age, as a nonagenarian (92), the historical evidence placed on the demolished house as the homestead of the great Toyejes, the 7th and the 11th Aare-Ona-Kakanfo of Yorubaland and the fate of the several thousands of people affected by the demolition. My relocation to where I am now from where I was sacked by the Ajimobi government did not come too softly; the thought, alone, of where to lay my head at my age with my large family became my cross. And till now, my family has been dislocated into five different abodes. The April-fool payment of compensation to victims has made Ajimobis government undemocratic. If Ajimobi could mete out this treatment to the people, where then, is the civilisation he claims to be in possession of?

Footage from one of the protesters as demolition work started

A giant artwork in the centre of Newport is being demolished days after attempts to have it preserved failed.

Campaigners had planned to hold a protest this weekend at the site of the mural, which depicts the 1839 Chartist uprising in the city.

But barely a fortnight after heritage body Cadw declined to list the 1970s mosaic, the diggers have moved in.

Newport council has said moving the mural would cost 600,000 and might not work.

Around 20 people joined a protest after demolition work started at the site of the mural in a city centre subway off John Frost Square on Thursday afternoon.

It followed failed attempts to preserve the 35m (115ft) mosaic, which is being removed as part of a 100m shopping centre development.

Protesters shouted at workers as work started, before barriers were pulled down and some people rushed through.

PHILADELPHIA The leader of a City Council probe on demolition practices says he expects Council action by the end of the year on a broad legislative package to promote safety at Philadelphia demolition and construction sites.

The proposals, subject to negotiation and change, would establish minimum training requirements for contractors and city building inspectors, require contractors to hire independent site-safety monitors at every construction or demolition site, expand the authority of the Fire Department to shut down dangerous construction jobs, and require demolition contractors to convince the city of their skills and training before they are licensed to work in Philadelphia.

The proposals were spurred by the June 5 accident at 22d and Market Streets where a four-story brick wall, left standing without support at a demolition site, toppled onto a Salvation Army thrift shop next door. Six people inside the shop died and 14 others were injured, including a heavy-equipment operator, who remains in jail for his alleged role in causing the collapse.

Curtis Jones Jr., chairman of a Council committee that held demolition hearings over the summer, said he expected to negotiate details with the Nutter administration and Council members, then schedule hearings and pass legislation by the end of December, in time to address funding needs in next year's budget.

Mayor Nutter issued a statement praising Council's work, citing steps his administration has taken to strengthen regulation of demolitions, and promising to work with Council "to ensure safety at all demolition sites in the city."

Council sources said there was still significant disagreement among Council members on how stringent the regulatory requirements should be.

Concerns include the impact on Philadelphia construction costs, city budget implications, and how it would affect the continuing friction between union and nonunion contractors, frequently accused by the construction trade unions of neglecting safety issues to save money.

The city's Building Industry Association did not return a call Thursday seeking comment.

Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) October 04, 2013

When it comes to controlling damaging flood waters that have entered a home, time is the most important factor, says the owner of Green Home Carpet Cleaning in Las Vegas, NV. Immediate effects include the warping of wood and drywall and the introduction of chemical and biological materials into the home from contaminated waters. In as little as 24 hours, molds and mildew begin to grow and within as little as one week, woods and other materials in the home can begin to rot past the point of no return. The good news is that there are professional flood control experts like Green Home Carpet Cleaning in Las Vegas that work around the clock.

"Its never to early or too late to call us for any emergency flood damage control," says the owner of Green Home Carpet Cleaning, "We're available 24 hours a day 7 days a week to make sure we take care of the problem quickly and efficiently."

If any flood control expert suggests that it is okay to wait to begin control and clean up until their schedule allows, it is strongly recommended that you move on immediately to another company. Beginning to control flood waters right away can save health problems and potentially tens of thousands of dollars in repair, restoration and/or replacement of costly items. Obtaining a professional 24-Hour emergency flood control expert right away is also important because attempting any sort of clean up on your own can be dangerous. Handling contaminated materials like lead paint or septic waste can cause very serious health concerns and so it is always best to wait until a professional can asses the situation.

Using state-of-the-art flood control equipment such asHydro-X Extreme Extractors, LGR (Low Grain Refrigerant) and desiccant dehumidifiers, along with turbo circulation fans and eco-friendly cleaning solutions, Green Home Carpet Cleaning in Las Vegas will get flooded homes clean, dry and free of contaminants immediately. And, because they are a full-service carpet, upholstery and tile cleaning company, they offer professional follow-up cleaning and treatment to the floors and upholstered home furnishings.

Green Home Carpet Cleaning in Las Vegas takes the health and beauty of their clients home very seriously which is why they offer this 24-hour emergency Flood Control service to consumers. They know that they could potentially have more work to do by waiting to get things under control - and by extension have higher invoice dollars - but this is not the way they operate. So, if you live in the Las Vegas, Summerlin, Henderson, North Las Vegas or North Las Vegas areas, you can give Green Home Carpet Cleaning a call anytime day or night. If you live outside of our service area and they are unable to provide service, they urge homeowners who have been affected by flood waters to immediately find a 24-Hour Emergency Flood Control expert in their area.
