Part of an East Walnut Hills eyesore started coming down Tuesday morning, to make room for new condominiums.

The tear-down is part of ongoing urban development in the neighborhood.

Crews are tearing down the back portion of the original Walnut Hills High School, built in 1893, and located at the intersection of  Ashland Avenue and Victory Parkway.

The formerly abandoned landmark will soon be the "Schoolhouse Loft Condominiums." The building will hold 31 condos, starting in the $140,000s.

The portion demolished Tuesday was an extension to the old school, and housed the gymnasium and cafeteria.
