Eastham’s Demolished

July 21, 2014 9:15 a.m.

Work has started on the 12-floor, 139-unit Solaire apartment project at the longtime site of Eastham’s Exxon Servicenter on Wisconsin Avenue.

Last week, crews demolished the gas station structures that had served as home to the auto repair shop. The shop was at the spot (7100 Wisconsin Ave.) since 1929. It has moved to a shuttered gas station at Old Georgetown Road and Fairmont Avenue — but only temporarily.

That site is also set for redevelopment.
