May 24, 2021 - Demolition of the Lazarus (Macy's) Department Store which was built in 1970. Located at 3180 Kingsdale Center, Upper Arlington, Ohio.
"The Lazarus Department Store was founded in downtown Columbus in 1851. This structure is a good example of the suburban Lazarus store design of the mid-20th century. The entrance is emphasized by three ground-to-roof bays of pebble-embedded rock defined by New Formalism style white pilasters and arches. Designed using the same glazed multi-colored blue bricks as the Lazarus Eastland and Northland stores, these materials were selected “not only for their handsome color and sparkle, but for their durability and quality of never needing cleaning.” The design was influenced by Raymond Loewy, considered the father of industrial design, who had a decades-long working relationship with Robert Lazarus."

Kmart was once the leading discount chain (an outgrowth of the S S Kresge company). In 1969, Kmart had a new headquarters built at 3100 W. Big Beaver Road in Troy, Michigan featuring multiple dark grey service towers connected by offices with bronze colored floor to ceiling windows. The towers gave the building a grim ugly appearance. As a kid growing up in Troy, I have a memory of helicopters transporting trees to the site for the landscaping. The structure served as Kmart's HQ from 1972 to 2006 when they merged their operations with Sears and abandoned the Troy location. It had been empty ever since. Demolition started in November 2023 and continues through March 2024. These pictures do not convey the large size of the complex (40 acres).
While this view shows a large swath of the HQ site compared to the others, it is still only a fraction of the total building footprint.

Universal Wrecking Corp. www.universalwrecking.com was contracted to demolish a large industrial building. Universal Wrecking imploded the building in a safe manner. Performing the demolition via implosion also helped expedite the demolition project. Proper wetting of the building materials was also utilized as can be seen by use of fire hoses.
Wow the sidewalk is pink. Weird!
