By yesterday afternoon, workers with Iseler Demolition had removed the 250,000-gallon water tank by Motlow College and were working on its supports.
It may have been placed piece by piece from the ground up, but it’s coming down just the opposite. With five to six workers starting at the very top and systematically cutting away pieces with acetylene torches, a crane is used to lower pieces of the Motlow College water tower to the ground. Iseler Demolition from Michigan was awarded the project at a cost of $19,300 to the city. Removal began yesterday.
