Spectators have a ringside seat last Sunday as workers use powerful machines to de- molish the parking deck of the vacant Richmond Plaza building at 7th and Cary streets in Downtown. Clearing the parking deck and building is the first step toward building the planned 20-story office space for Dominion Resources. Demolition is expected to take four months, including creating room for four levels of underground parking. The next phase of two years involves construction of a 413-foot-tall facility that is expected to cost more than $100 million to build and outfit. The new building’s opening is planned for early 2019.

Highs are expected in the mid- to upper 80s with scattered thunderstorms.
