One of the signature pieces of the old Woodstock Hospital came down quickly today. The last above ground structure to come down, the old chimney stack, was demolished in about 45-minutes this morning. Hospital VP of Services Perry Lang says the end of the hospital demolition is drawing near. "With that chimney being demolished today, that really only leaves the foundation work. Where they will be digging out the foundation, grinding it up, and placing it back in the hole. So at this point, we're probably only 2 to 3 weeks away from the finish of demolition." The property will then be put on the market by Canadian Real Estate company, CBRE, who has experience in marketing larger parcels, like the hospital's 8.6-acres. The land will be sold to a builder to develop future houses. Lang says, "At this point no price has been established on the sale of the land. We're hoping the market will dictate price. The proceeds from the sale of land will go towards offsetting the cost of demolition, with the hopes that we're able to more or less break even on the project." The former hospital lands have been re-zoned for future residential development.
