Progress is continuing at East Elementary School in Knoxville, the site of a new housing development. Interim City Manager Heather Ussery says that no date is set for the demolition, but it should be completed by the end of August.

“Knoxville Economic Development Authority is moving forward with demolition. The asbestos removal has been completed, and the contractor will begin demolition this month and possibly continuing into August. They’re working on meeting with building contractors and figuring out design plans. We’re hoping we’ll see a few houses built this fall.”
