CLEARING THE WAY

ILLUSTRATION: Staff photo by Michael Kestner

Heavy machinery begins to tear away the facade of the old J.C.

Penney department store on North Main Street in downtown Suffolk as

the multi-story professional building looms in the background.

Destruction of the vacant building will clear the way for the city's

new court complex, which has been planned to help revitalize

downtown.
