Wrecking ball takes first swing ahead of five-month contract.
Demolition of the Statesman Towers on the campus of Indiana State University began Monday morning.
The first hit of the wrecking ball to the East Tower started at 11 a.m. These towers, built in the late 1960’s, were originally used as residence halls and then later as the Schools of Education and Business.
The total demolition will taken an estimated four to five months with the majority of that time spent removing debris.
