Over the weekend demolition began on the large silos on the former Roanoke City Mill property, across the street from Carilion's Riverside Center and the future Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine.
Jefferson Street was closed over the weekend as workers built a temporary protective screen in the middle of the road to protect the buildings from possible flying debris.
The panorama of the mill site below was taken today (7/13). 
Hat-tip to the folks at S.B. Cox for their professional, well-organized and remarkably fast work!
(Reminds me of a cell phone commercial)
