TYLER – \"\"For more than 30 years, the South Glenwood Ground Storage Tank has stood unused along South Glenwood Boulevard. Starting Tuesday, Aug. 26, crews will begin removing the aging structure. All work will be contained to the site and there will be no disruption to traffic. The demolition will take about 4 to 5 days. The South Glenwood Ground Storage Tank is located on South Glenwood Boulevard between Vine Avenue and Houston Street. Built in the 1940s, the facility once stored water from Well 2, which is scheduled to be decommissioned by the end of 2025. TWU has slowly been decommissioning wells as the transition to surface water sources for Tyler’s water supply has rendered the wells obsolete and no longer necessary for the City’s water distribution system. <\/p>\n

Tyler Water Utilities is working with Hunter Demolition and Wrecking Corporation under a $276,684 contract to remove the tank and related structures. The project includes demolishing the tank, its foundation, a nearby retaining wall, and a brick building; removing the surrounding chain link fence; cutting and plugging existing water lines; and coordinating with utility providers. <\/p>\n

The demolition of the South Glenwood Storage Tank not only removes a long-out-of-service structure but will improve the area’s visibility for drivers. <\/p>\n

The demolition is anticipated to be completed in October. The area will remain a roadway median. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
