Demolition of College Inn planned for May 28th



We received the following information from University of Colorado.  I don't know that we need to feed anything back to them, but let Stephen and me know if you feel differently!  You can also read more about the demolition in this recent Daily Camera article.

CU-Boulder has begun a project to demolish the College Inn on Arapahoe & 17th. The building is currently vacant and has been scheduled for abatement and demolition. The contractor is mobilizing and will start by abating the interior of the building for hazardous materials, then doing some selective demolition on the interior.

On May 28 (after Boulder High School ends for the year), the contractor will begin demolition. The building will be torn down by mechanical means (no wrecking balls or implosions). The work is expected to be complete by August 1, 2013. At the conclusion of the project, the area will be covered with gravel. The site is expected to remain undeveloped for the immediate future.
Expect to see large trucks in area. The contractor will manage traffic control and also has a dust mitigation plan in place. Work hours are expected to be 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and the contractor will follow City noise ordinances.
That’s the gist of it. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Feel free to ring me if you want to discuss.

Thanks,
