Following is a post that was scheduled to be published last week, but a "certain incident" over the weekend got in the way. The photos show the operation at 208-210 Locust Street, in which the brick facade was taken down, and a temporary covering was put in place. Afterwards, the 200 block of Locust was opened to traffic.
Taking it down, brick by brick
Workmen used bucket trucks to reach the bricks.
Plywood was removed from atop the temporary walkway.
And there's the bathroom.

Checking it out
Dumpster load of bricks - very few were salvageable.
Installing framing to attach to

Two at a time
All wrapped up
Deconstructing the walkway
Having a look
There was even a permit posted.
A few final touches
Borough workers moved the barriers that were blocking Locust Street traffic and placed them along the front of the property to protect pedestrians.

Great pictures, I've heard so much about this, but I'm unable to walk that far to see it for myself.
I'm glad I could bring it to you.
