The former North Little Rock City Services building, at 120 Main St., is set to be demolished next Tuesday, Feb. 27
Mayor Terry Hartwick will get the wrecking ball started at 10 a.m.
The building, formerly the First American National Bank, was purchased by the city in 1998 and became the place to go to pay utility bills, or see the city’s planning or legal departments, along with a number of other departments as City Hall, while ornate, is quite small.
Two buildings were in use there, and that includes the drive-thru lanes that became not so secret parking spaces for events at Simmons Bank Arena, among other downtown events.
Demolition is expected to take 75 days and the vacant property will be used for future downtown development.
City Services now operates out of a building at 700 W. 29th St. near Laman Library and the Patrick Henry Hays Senior Center.
In other North Little Rock news, Roads in and out of Burns Park will all officially open this Friday after being repaired from last year’s EF-3 tornado that hit the park on March 31, 2023.
