In case you might have gone to Creekvew Elementary.

In case you have a thing for tearing down buildings.

 

In case you want to see what kind of video my 12 year olds cheap camera takes.

 

In case you enjoy watching heavy machinery.

 
In case you just have nothing better to do.
 

Here is a short video of the http://middletownusa.com/view_news.asp?a=3530 - Demolition of Creekview Elementary .

Always wondered why after they tear the schools down(or any brick building), they didn't allow the citizens to bring their trucks and load up on the bricks for paver walks and patios. Most of it is going to the landfills anyway. Why not offer the citizens a break on their home projects by providing some building materials? Would be a nice gesture on the part of the city, right?

Right!

Along those same lines I noticed in the still pictures (look close at the first one) that the room was still filled with desks and chairs.
 
It's hard to imagine those items had no value to anyone.

Funny that the journal ran the same story the day after your story appeared on MUSA.

I guess we are another source of news for the traditional media. lol

Maybe in 1971, but in today's world I'm sure if they did this, someone would just get hurt climbing on the rubble and then sue them.
