Ickes Buildings Start to Come Down


We recently drove down Cermack past the Harold Ickes buildings and the wrecking ball is in full force. The building at the corner of Cermack and State looks to be the first one coming down as about a quarter of the building has been knocked down as of yesterday.

And in case you didn't hear, two weeks ago a man working on the demolition crew at the site died after falling from the seventh story.
