Ikea is working overtime in its efforts to make the Todd Shipyard an item for Forgotten NY and in its quest to bring Ektorp and Hensvik to the masses ASAP. A weekend visit to the Ikea site in Red Hook found clouds of dust, crashing sounds, the roar of demolition and earthmoving equipment, a small army of workers and buildings that are seeing their final days, as shown above. Upside: If you hurry down, you can see inside the buildings from Beard Street! More demolition photos after the jump.
