Drone Footage Of Derby Field House Demo

Contractors Monday began demolishing the old athletic field field house at the Leo F. Ryan Athletic Complex.

The work is being done to make way for a new field house — along with a new softball/baseball field, being funded thanks to a private donation.

A new track and football stadium is under construction, thanks to a state grant.

Sentimental parts of the field house — such as duct work that had hand-written messages from past coaches and Derby athletes — were preserved.

Here is drone footage of the demo captured by Valley Aerial Optics.
