What do we do with useless articles on the whole? We throw them out from our homes as there is no other way. Now what will you do if one of your (many) houses has become derelict and is on the brink of collapse? You will have to pull it down or tear down it forcefully or else it may injure others. This is the normal method and is followed throughout the globe. For that reason there is nothing to wonder if it is repeated at South Hadley, the town in Hampshire County, Massachusetts, United States. What is the reason of this experiment at that place?
Well, it is the long-vacant brick building of the previous Michael’s Market at Main and Bridge streets in South Hadley. The building has been in the dilapidated state for a number of years and after a lot of deliberations in the governmental departments and in the city council, the town officials have finally intervened. It is to be noted that the building is, at present, under the aegis of C+K II, a corporation listed as doing business at 318 Lewis Wharf, Boston, and owned by Carol Robinson and Kathleen A. Dinn. What is the real cause that has made the town officials start the demolition out of the blue?
According to the consideration of Fire District 1 Fire Chief William J. Judd, the entire building has become a hazard to the public since the air conditioning-heating unit is starting to fall through the roof. What is the awful consequence? The west wall of the brick structure has bulged and has become unsafe for even the pedestrians to a large extent. However, the property is massive and is assessed at $209,000, with $166,500 of it being for the building.
Is there any other plan in the same site? Well, nothing has been heard till now.
