Demolition of building on SIU's Greek Row

Construction crews began demolition of buildings at the SIU Greek Row.

Construction crews started a new chapter of student housing at SIU on Wednesday. The long dormant housing at Greek Row is coming down to make way for a new housing project called Saluki Village.

WSIU'S Brian Sapp found plenty of nostalgia mixed in with excitement as the crowd watched the buildings come down.
