Building Demolition

BOONE, Iowa---The demolition of three downtown buildings in Boone has passed the half way point. Now three weeks into the project, it's expected to take another 3-weeks to complete everything.

He says 418-tons of debris were accepted at the landfill. This week, Anderson Excavating began bringing in the material that could not be salvaged from the Meyers building
