A Murphysboro eyesore will soon see the wrecking ball.

The former Brown Shoe Factory will be torn down after an agreement was reached between the city and the building’s owner.

Carol Hohman hired Rawson Excavating of Murphysboro to demolish the property, which city officials deem a significant safety and liability risk.

The city will reportedly loan Hohman the money to tear down the building and she will repay the money after the work has been completed.
