Crews will work from 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. every day during demolition and the work will be loud at times and noisy with a lot of dust.
Nearby businesses and residents should keep their doors and windows closed.
Water will be used to reduce the impacts of the dust in the air.
The cleanup process is expected to take five weeks to complete followed by grading the site.
All of the work is scheduled to finish by July 22nd.
Water Street should be back open to motorists sometime on or before Friday, June 7th.
