Structures were razed and built Tuesday, Feb. 11, on campus.
Dunstan Hall, located at the intersection of Magnolia and the Tiger Concourse, has been empty for months after being gutted of all insulation, electronics and furniture.
Britt Demolition and Recycling of Birmingham demolished the outdated structure today.
A large amount of asbestos in the building delayed renovations, but now that the asbestos is gone the demolition team is not stopping for anything, poor weather included.
"Rain, sleet or shine, we work until the job is done," said an anonymous spokesperson for Britt Demolition.
On the other side of campus, the Telfair B. Peet Theater on Samford Avenue is getting a new Blackbox theater on its northwest end.
The new theater is under construction by Bear Brothers' Construction of Montgomery.
Though ground was just broken on the project, a representative of Bear Brothers Construction estimated the project to be complete around June 2014.
