The Ward Bakery demolition will finally begin soon
Atlantic Yards Report
After weeks of pre-demolition asbestos abatement at the Ward Bakery on Pacific Street, and weeks of "mobilization for demolition," the Atlantic Yards Construction Update issued yesterday by the Empire State Development Corporation puts it plainly:
Demolition will begin at 800 Pacific Street (block 1129, lot 25) within this two week period.
The process is expected to take several months. It wasn't inevitable, since Forest City Enterprises has a history of historic preservation--just not in Brooklyn.
