KINGSTON --- It was demolition day for an 83-year-old building at a car dealership in Luzerne County.

It only took hours to bring down what was the home to Bonner Chevrolet in Kingston.

It's part of a big expansion for the dealership that will mean a whole new look along busy Wyoming avenue.

Part of the building housed the office where Pat Gilberson worked for more than a decade. She took a break from work to watch it go.

Other workers and customers did too, stopping to see the place that served generations of car customers become no more.

Rich Crossin was watching family history come down. Crossin and his brothers run Bonner Chevrolet now. The dealership moved into part of its new home earlier this week but there's more to come.

Family members came to document the demolition.

As this building comes down, work continues in the service garage feet away. The dealership is staying open through all this.

Crews were careful to only bring down what's not needed.

It only took them hours to wipe away 8 decades of service from this building.
