The Demolition of the Livery: 16 October 2014

When I arrived at the livery on Thursday, I found…no livery. In fact, I arrived just as the crew was leaving.

This was the livery when they started demolition:

And this was the livery eight days later:

The crew left a few of the old blocks.

Aside from those blocks, the livery was gone.

The loading dock platform is still there, but the ramp was filled in to make the site level.

With the site open and quiet, I took a peek into the Mack.

(The garage doors opening onto Jackson Street are just to the right of the frame.)

Wait, wait, I misspoke earlier. Not all the livery’s blocks had been taken away. A few were left to patch up the Mack’s damaged chimney.

Some of the bricks were left on a nearby windowsill.

The Mack needs plenty of work, but it has plenty of potential.
