Photos: See the progress of the former VA Butler Healthcare building’s demolition

Demolition of the VA Butler Healthcare’s former domiciliary building, a three-story brick structure at 325 New Castle Road in Butler Township, is well underway as the end of April draws near.

Demolition of the building, which had not been occupied for years, began in late March.

Since then, progress can be seen regularly at the site. Much of what remains is rubble.

A few weeks before its demolition, firefighters conducted a training in the structure.
