Quality Workmanship Since 2000
St. Johns River Power Park set for Demolition
A few months after shutting down the St. Johns River Power Park, the site’s two 464-foot-tall cooling towers are ready to come down.
The city has approved a permit for demolition of the towers, which is expected to cost $14,511,047. JEA spokeswoman Gerri Boyce said she does not have an exact date for the demolition.
Until it shut down in January, the St. Johns River Power Park was a coal-fired electric generating plant, 80 percent of which was owned by JEA and 20 percent by Florida Power and Light. About 200 workers were displaced when the plant closed.
At most, the plant consumed 4.5 million tons of coal per year. By closing the plant, JEA reduced its carbon footprint by 30 percent, according to the utility’s website.
The facility, located at 11201 New Berlin Road in northeast Jacksonville, took $1.45 billion to construct in the early 1980s. It began producing electricity in 1987.
The plant sits on a 1,600-acre site. JEA plans to sell the land, with the exception of about 100 acres near the plant, which JEA will use to possibly build a natural gas plant.
New York-based Total Wrecking & Environmental has contracted with JEA to conduct the demolition.
Is The House A Good Candidate For Tear Down?
Potential tear downs are typically outdated houses in popular, sought-after neighborhoods. Maybe they’re much smaller than average. The kitchen might be so old the last person who cooked in it had a beehive hairdo. They might have serious structural issues that make a renovation too costly.
All this means they tend to be priced below average for their street or neighborhood and often sit unsold longer than others.
Is The House Beyond Repair?
looking at neighborhood property value comps will help you decide between renovate or rebuildSometimes even a seasoned remodeler just says, “Ugh.”
Older homes can have so many problems, it’s just not financially feasible to repair them. Heavy infestations of mold or pests. Extensive water damage undermining the foundation or footings. Roof damage from wind or rot.
Some houses have interior layouts that are too tough to rearrange for today’s lifestyles.
Will The Eventual Value Make It Worth It?
Real estate experts say a tear down should be able to support a new house that, when complete, is valued at two to three times the price of the tear down house when you bought it.
If you can nab an older, outdated house in a great location for $200,000, then sell it later for $400,000 to $600,000, that’s a good candidate. Start by looking at the comparable property values — “comps” — of surrounding houses to get a better idea.
Do You Want All The Modern Bells And Whistles?
Think about what’s important to you, or to your potential buyers.
Do you want a home that’s energy efficient, from windows to doors to kitchen appliances? Wired for all the latest electronics? Contemporary room layouts?
By the time you update an older house with all those bells and whistles, it might be cheaper to tear it down and build from scratch.

ASBESTOS INFORMATION
DISPOSAL PROCEDURES & INFORMATION
The Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) has very specific rules regarding the handling and disposal of materials containing asbestos. DEQ also requires an asbestos survey be performed by an accredited inspector to determine the presence of asbestos in or on a structure prior to any demolition activities. All demolition debris coming to our transfer station or landfill for disposal must be accompanied with Asbestos Clearance Certification from a certified asbestos abatement company. This paperwork is required regardless of what year the structure was built, unless all that you are disposing of is bare wood, bare metal, glass and/or household garbage.

Former Jacksonville Belk building Demolished – 4397 Roosevelt Boulevard
The permits for the demolition of the former Belk department store and a second smaller building at Roosevelt Square have been approved by the city, paving the way for the shopping center’s third redevelopment to begin.
The buildings, located at 4535 Roosevelt Boulevard and 4397 Roosevelt Boulevard, will cost about $300,000 to demolish, according to the permits.
Atlanta-based Dewberry Capital Corp., the shopping center’s owner, confirmed redevelopment plans in January. An environmental resource permit approved in June allows for the redevelopment of five acres, demolition of the Belk store and some construction.
