Concrete

evidence

A large piece of Northville
Township is headed to the
Grand Rapids area.
Concrete rubble from the
demolition of the former
state psychiatric hospital
buildings at Legacy Park is
being crushed down to
gravel, "cleaned" by a mag-
net and sent by truckloads
to the west side of Michigan,
where it will be used to
make new concrete.
Currently there is a nation-
wide concrete shortage, so
the recycled demolition
debris is a welcome addition
to the construction industry,
officials said. Nearly all the
debris from the demolition
project is being recycled,
and not taken to a landfill,
they added.
