Rochester, N.Y. – The demolition of Midtown Plaza is nearing the halfway point.
Marty Piecuch, the construction manager, said the B. Forman, Wendy’s, bus station and Wegmans have been demolished. Two of the three skyways have also come down. He said demolition is 40 percent finished.
Next week, demolition work will begin on the Citizens Bank building.
