The front portion and main entrance to the Findlay Mall has been demolished.
You can see some video of the demolition below. The video was taken on Wednesday.
In June, demolition began on the portion of the mall where the new Target store will be located.
At that time, the demolition was not visible from Tiffin Avenue because it began on the back side of the mall.
188,000 square feet of the existing mall is being torn down to make way for a 131,809-square-foot Target store in what was the middle section of the mall. (see the picture below)
The demolition will create separation from Dunham’s, Michael’s, and Tokyo Steakhouse to the west, leaving room for a 24-foot drive and additional parking spots on the west side.
The newly open space in the front will allow to keep a consistent drive along the front of the Target, lining up with the Runnings store.
No timeline was given on how long the demolition of the mall or construction of the Target store will take.
In March it was announced that Target finalized a purchase-sale agreement with Findlay Mall owner and developer Rocky Companies.
