Demolition work began March 6 on the former Dillard's building at the Westminster Mall redevelopment site. Over the next two weeks crews from American Demolition will be working their way from the east side of the structure toward the west side, along Sheridan Boulevard. About 90 percent of the material will be recycled (learn more here).

The Sears building, which was recently acquired by the Westminster Economic Development Authority, will be demolished later in the summer (more information here).
