Marine Park Field House Gone, Now a Hole

DSC_9491

So we all should know by now that the Marine Park’s Field house is going to be reconstructed.

The new Marine Park Community Center will be the Parks Department’s first state-of-the-art Green Building. With solar panels, a geo-thermal heating and cooling system, and a planted roof, this building is an example of the City’s commitment to an environmentally-friendly 21 st century.

The seniors that talked to me said it took a few hours to knock down and that they were worried about asbestos floating around. Most of them said they used to remove asbestos for a living and that they saw no precautions in demolishing the building.

Obviously, if there was asbestos its to late now but its something mumbling around the bocce ball crowd.
