(BEDFORD) - Demolition of the former JC Penney building at the corner of 15th and J streets will begin Tuesday morning.
The site will be home to the StoneGate Arts & Education Center, which is part of the city's Stellar projects.
After Tuesday morning, demolition will continue from 9 p.m. until 6 a.m. Wednesday through Friday so there will be minimal impact to downtown businesses.
Fencing has been placed around the building to protect pedestrians and vehicle traffic.
Construction on the $4.4 million building is expected to take 11 months.
