Project Description

Jackson was retained for the emergency demolition of a structurally unstable, four-story wood-framed opera house associated with the historic Equinox Resort. The building was demolished using an ultra-high-reach excavator equipped with a basket grapple, with all debris managed and disposed of as regulated asbestos-containing material. Protective measures and controlled demolition techniques were implemented to prevent damage to one- and two-story structures located within 10 feet of the work. Following demolition, Jackson backfilled, graded, and seeded the site.

This project highlights Jackson’s ability to respond quickly to emergency conditions and safely demolish unstable structures in confined, historically sensitive settings. It also demonstrates our experience combining specialized demolition equipment, asbestos controls, adjacent-property protection, and complete site restoration.
