For the last week crews working for Double Point Construction have been using a crane to demolish the old Power County Grain Growers building. The wooden structure is now owned by CHS and was torn down to make way for future improvements.

Water filled construction trenches and rushed down Idaho Street following a sudden rain storm that covered several other streets and flooded several businesses and homes around American Falls. Storm drains couldn’t handle the downpour, making driving a risky proposition. See more photos in this week’s print edition.

Mike Glaser of Double Point Construction was busy last week with demolition work on an old building in the elevator district of American Falls. The old wooden elevator in the background is next on the chopping block and should be coming down within the next week or two.
