| Collage of BNSF Redmond Spur Railway Demolition, 7/20/2011 |
Demolition of the BNSF railway spur for the "Redmond Central Connector" has begun, marking the end of an era. Once the rails are pulled and recycled, the city will install a huge regional stormwater pipe under the railroad bedding. A trail and "linear park" will be built on top of the pipe. The trail will connect to the Downtown Park.

A bit of nostalgia, but it was time. Not ever really held up as a huge historical district anyways.
