June deadline for Gage Complex implosion…

MSU dorm to fall to implosion in late June.

After serving as a landmark for about 50 years on the campus of Minnesota State University, the end is near for Gage Complex.

The residence hall’s implosion is set for the morning hours of either Saturday, June 29, or Sunday, June 30, with weather conditions determining the safest time for the event. (If weather conditions prevent a June 29 or 30 implosion, the event will occur at a similar time on the following weekend.)

On the date of implosion, a 1,000-foot radius “safe zone” is required around the site for 12 hours prior to and eight hours after the implosion. All buildings and grounds within that 1,000-foot radius will be “off limits” during those hours.
