(KLZA)-- A pair of vacant buildings on G Street, east of the Pawnee County Courthouse in Pawnee City have collapsed.
On Friday of last week the buildings started to collapse when the roof on one of the buildings fell in. Tuesday afternoon around 4:30 the buildings tumbled down completely.
City Clerk Tammy Curtis said that no one was injured in the collapse and that no one was walking or driving by when the collapse occurred.
Several windows were broken out of the adjacent Union Bank & Trust Building.
The building is currently owned by Ed Raper.
Following a City Council conducted hearing concerning the dilapidated buildings in May of 2024, Raper agreed to sell the site to the City so the buildings could be razed.
Curtis said the city has been awarded a Rural Community Recovery Program grant to help with the cost of tearing down the buildings, but the funds have not yet been transferred to the city.
Plans call for converting the side into Tranquility Park once the buildings were torn down.
What caused the final collapse of the buildings has not yet been determined.
