Workers with Burns Dirt Construction remove concrete debris from the ground this morning on Third Avenue North in Columbus, part of the Burns Bottom Redevelopment District. The Columbus Redevelopment Authority is in the final stages of property acquisition in the five-block area between Third and Fourth streets and Second and Seventh avenues, said president Mark Alexander Sr., and work is ongoing to clear old concrete and dead trees from the properties so the group can market the entire district to a developer.
