The Civic Auditorium is no longer a structure, but a pile of rubble consisting of wood, metal, insulation, concrete and who knows what else.

By midday on Thursday, excavators had finished the major work of pulling down building, and will now turn to sorting through the debris and hauling it away.

The cement foundation will be dug out as well, and the site will eventually be fulling cleaned up and rehabilitated. The expected completion date is June 15th.
