ALBERT LEA, Minn.-A pair of historic buildings on S. Broadway Ave. are set to be deconstructed in roughly three to four weeks in what officials said will be ‘an emergency demolition.’ Officials with the city’s building and zoning said 332 and 324 S. Broadway Ave. have deteriorated to the point where the pair of buildings pose a danger to the public. Both buildings have been abandoned for more than 15 years. The City of Albert Lea purchased the buildings in 2015 and 2021 and deemed them beyond repair.
