STRUCTURE IN MOST NEED OF DEMOLITION

1st Place: Downtown post office
2nd Place: Strip malls on Highway 53
3rd Place: Country Jam A-frame

The simple idea of demolishing something gets me excited. I don’t know but it could be the anthill-crushing kid inside of me awaiting the opportunity to reek havoc once again. Maybe if I’m lucky one of your votes will be on the chopping block giving me the opportunity to sledge hammer some concrete. At the top spot is the downtown post office (126 N Barstow St) with its angled parking, smelly-head windows, and dumb bricks…actually it’s kind of outdated standing next to the righteous RCU building and could use a contemporary facelift. Number two is the strip malls on 53. These buildings (sigh) are screaming to be kicked over and replaced with updated and efficient retail space. Bringing in the rear is the Country Jam A-frame (1711 S Hastings Way) thing on 53. Unless this building is on top of a ski hill, A-frames should be D-famed and D-molished. Nothing against Country Jam, but maybe build something that resembles a cowboy boot or 10-gallon hat or something. – Mark Koenig
