Demolition comes to an end It took two days for Fast Eddie’s crew to bring down the main portion of the old Chesterville Record building at 7 King St. On Thurs., Dec. 6, the work became a spectacle for many as the stone walls were crushed inward as seen in the far left photo. Things didn’t go exactly as planned when bringing down the front, second storey wall. As the excavator pushed the wall inward, gravity had other plans and the crew had to keep an eye out in order to avoid the wall falling onto the blocked off King St. In the process, the lamp post was also brought down in a resounding crash. Despite the mess on the road, Eddie’s crew was quick to get to the clean-up and the road was deemed safe and re-opened shortly after. As of now, the building has come down fully and the hole had been filled, ready for a new purpose.
