The controversial demolition of the old Red Balloon building in downtown Duncan is underway.
But the repercussions of that move could echo on in a courtroom for quite some time.
Brian McDaniel, lawyer for building owner Susan Faulkner confirmed Tuesday that his client plans to proceed with court action intended to recoup her losses losses that are expected to grow with the demolition.
The ultimate loss is going to include the cost of the building, McDaniel said. The game has changed, but the game is still on.
City of Duncan CAO Peter de Verteuil confirmed the city quietly prepared the building for the demolition process in November and December and began dismantling it from the inside about a week ago in what is expected to be a careful, drawn-out process.
The buildings high-profile downtown location and the presence of asbestos and lead complicates things. De Verteuil said the amount of hazardous material was extensive, leading to the hiring of Tectonica Management to assist.
The asbestos removal is ongoing and deconstruction will begin immediately upon its completion.
Costs of demolition project at $294,666, pending lead removal are being paid by the city, which will then bill Faulkner.

OKLAHOMA CITY -
The demolition of the old John Marshall High School is nearly complete.
Construction crews have been stripping and clearing the building that was built in 1948, for the past two weeks.
The school at 9017 University closed and then re-opened on North Portland seven years ago.
John Marshall class of 1964 Danny Scott, was one of several alumni who've been gathering up pieces of history inside and outside of the school for the past week or so.
It's part of my neighborhood, it's a building I fell in love with, and I have to say goodbye, Scott said with a choked up voice outside the school Thursday afternoon.
Vallene Cooks was principal of John Marshall during the decade of the 90's. She said the Bears were undefeated state champions in football and basketball during the 1995-96 school year. She thinks that's a feat that's never been duplicated in the state of Oklahoma.

Encore Custom AV Opens New Home Automation Showroom
When corporate executives flooded into the Steel City during the latter half of the 20th century, one man was ready to house them.
John Hobart Miller Jr., a custom homebuilder and land developer, incorporated his construction company in 1956 the height of the American suburbanization building spree and just as Pittsburghs economic base began shifting to include more service industries.
These were higher-paid guys used to bigger homes, John Miller III of Fox Chapel said of his fathers clients. The baby boom generation was taking off, so it was the right place, right time.
The elder Mr. Miller, of Fox Chapel, died Monday at the age of 86.
In all, family members estimated he had his hands on 600 new homes, including his signature development called Forest Manor in Harmar. Its a figure that supports his reputation among fellow developers and builders as the man who built Pittsburghs suburbs, family members said.
The eventual developer of million-dollar homes for the affluent came from humble roots. Born in 1928, Mr. Miller grew up learning carpentry while working for his father, John Miller Sr., who himself owned a home-building business that had prospered during the economic boom of the 1920s.
But then came the Great Depression, and John Miller Sr. slowed the building of new houses and lost his own home. After high school, John Miller Jr. spent a year at Carnegie Mellon University but didnt have the money to stay any longer.
When his father died in 1956, Mr. Miller got a $5,000 loan from his mother, bought a pickup truck and joined a few men to continue the tradition and form his own company: John Hobart Miller Inc.
Everyone thinks someone handed him a business, John Miller III said. Much to the contrary, his fathers work ethic, attention to detail and commitment to customer service propelled him to the top of a booming industry, he said.
Mr. Miller had a knack for building single-family custom homes, but after meeting land developers at networking conventions, he began to dream bigger and riskier: He started buying land.
