On Wednesday, Mar. 31, demolition will begin on the main building and the smoke stack of the former Saskatchewan Hospital North Battleford.
A release issued Wednesday by the province states the demolition work on these two items is expected to take several days.
The grounds of the former SHNB are an active demolition site, says the release, and for safety reasons, media and the general public will not be permitted onto the site.
The Ministry of SaskBuilds and Procurement recognizes that the removal of these two structures will be of interest to the public and have contracted a photographer to document the process. Photos will be available to share as soon as possible.
The decorative brick portion at the top of the smoke stack will be removed prior to demolition and will be preserved.
