Known as the “White House,” the building has played a role in the company since it opened in 1971.

The building, located at 2800 Decker Drive, will be coming down this Saturday at 6:30 a.m. as the company implodes it.

While there will be no designated viewing areas available for the public to view the implosion, the company says they will be posting a video of the demolition online after it happens.

The company has provided a map of roadways that will be temporarily closed for the demolition.
