Scott Street Pub Tear Down »

by Marcus Nelson on January 10th, 2008

Taken January 10th, 2008 – Wausau, Wisconsin. Creating room for further development, the city has systematically purchased the three eastern-most buildings. These structures will be cleared and turned into temporary parking – making room for future urban in-fill once a proper use is identified.

Pictures below show the demolition of a Blues Icon in Central Wisconsin, The Scott Street Steak & Pub, known affectionately by locals as, “The Pub.” See recent Article for more history.
