Industry on demolitionx.com “This has been an extremely gratifying project for the company,” states Jay Anderson, Owner, Big Dog Demolition, Inc. “The complex nature of the plan, combined with the community’s eagerness to renovate the Mall, were both factors in our excitement to take on this project.” The complexity of the demolition came in having to create a barrier wall where the store attached to the existing mall structure. “Big Dog Demolition was able to separate the two structures by hand prior to the demolition of the store,” added Mr. Anderson. “Once the separation was complete, steel shears were used to dismantle the concrete and steel in order for us to begin the exterior demolition.” Big Dog Demolition then created a temporary barrier against the side of the building so that the patrons of the Mall were not disturbed as the extensive renovation efforts continued. Big Dog Demolition is committed to take the environmentally responsible action of recycling and reducing waste. Approximately 280 tons of steel were recycled as a result of the interior demolition and many of the masonry products will be salvaged for re-use for road base at local Atlanta landfills. Big Dog Demolition has offices in Atlanta, GA, Charlotte, N.C. and Miami, Fl. This project pictured below was worth approximately $400,000:

Jack Hruska is Bloomingdale's top designer. It's his job to transform tired, empty Macy's spaces at Lenox Square and Perimeter malls into new Bloomingdale's. His first order of business in Atlanta: gut both stores. Contractors ripped out every wall and floor and took the former Macy's stores down to shells. "We knew to convert the [former Macy's] was not going to be easy," said Hruska, senior vice president of store design and visual merchandising for the New York-based department store. "We thought we could preserve some of the interior and not do the radical surgery we had to do, but every wall came out."
