Demolition of the Hamilton board of education headquarters begins.

Demolition of the Hamilton board of education’s headquarters began on Aug. 1, the day that McMaster University took possession of the property. The plot of land at 100 Main St. W. will be the location of a McMaster family health centre. The project is going ahead despite vocal opposition from community members, who felt that the 46-year-old Education Centre building had historical significance and the potential for future use.
