Demolition Of The Last Langilenet Store

The Demolition Of The Last Langilenet Store was a demolition process that began on February 24, 2016 and was completed on May 13, 2016. It was built in 1973 and had been closed since 1985 and was one of few langilenet stores to have been built independently as a large store. The lot now holds a Kroger that began construction in July of 2018 and opened on September 7, 2019.

The building was built near a shopping center and the building itself became a target of urbexing in the 1990's, but became a popular site in the early 2010's until its demolition in 2016. Many videos on ATBW Blog and PBLOG are up showing exploration inside the building. One famous video from September 27, 2015 shows the interior of the building, which was mostly just rotting wall studs and no inner walls in the main area. It had been 30 years since the building was ever worked on and across the area were large ceiling diffusers laying on the floor with considerable amounts of rust on them.

Movie Appearances
In the 1995 Escade film When Escades Go West, the building was temporarily used for production of one of the scenes of the film, back when the building was still in good shape. It was also used for production eight years later for the ATBW movie One Too Soon. Both of these films can be viewed on ATBW+.
