Wilton to demolish Grey House to make room for new police station: ‘Long time coming’

The Board of Selectmen have approved the demolition of an unused municipal building, creating space for a new police station that’s years in the making, the first selectwoman said. Known as the Grey House, the building is expected to be torn down to make room for the new station, which is being built in front of the old one on Danbury Road. Wilton’s police station is outdated and the town has outgrown it in a number of ways, officials said of the building that hasn’t been updated since its initial construction. At the Jan. 8 Board of Selectmen meeting, Boucher said the board approved Complete Dismantling Service’s $15,755 bid for the demolition. She said this bid worked best for the city, as it was the lowest price; the highest was over $29,000. The demolition will comprise pumping and removing any above-ground oil tanks and gas, if present, removal of electric, removal and disposal of the foundation, footings and slab in their entirety.
