Fox Theater teardown started
By Gazette staff
STEVENS POINT – Deconstruction has started at the Fox Theater, 1116 Main St., Stevens Point. Interior teardown is underway, with no set start date for exterior demolition announced by city leaders.
Crew members from Urban Evolutions Inc. (UEI) are working with Recyclean to preserve as many raw materials from the Fox Theater as possible during the demolition process.
Deconstruction will occur on the theater portion of the building. The façade, front entry, and second story ballroom will remain at the current time.
Teardown of the theater section will take four to six weeks. Final grading and seeding of the property will be handled in the spring.
The project has created limited access behind the theater property.
