Demolition will happen in two phases. Adamo is in Phase 1, which includes hazardous material removal, asbestos abatement, interior demolition, and structural demolition of all buildings south of College Avenue, excluding the Blood Bank Building.

Phase 2 will include the Neldberg Building and Blood Bank Building after UPHS-Marquette relocates its operations from those locations and ends its tenancy with the NMU Foundation in 2024.
