The buildings, on the southside of 4th Avenue S.W., include the Phillips Building , Petro-Tech Printing Ltd. and the Lorrnel Building. The City of Calgary has announced plans to bring down four abandoned buildings in the 600 block of Fourth Avenue S.W.
Demolition of three of the four structures will be supported by the Downtown Calgary Demolition Incentive Program, which encourages developers to tear down unused office space. "You're eliminating a place where no one is coming and is … ready for vandalism and the types of things that we don't want to see in our city."
The city says the abandoned buildings on Fourth Avenue S.W., between Fifth and Sixth streets, will be demolished to build a 33-storey tower. Seen here is the Lorrnel Building.
