City Council this week approved tearing down two structures over 50 years old, one a commercial building and the other a house, under different owners in Statesboro's otherwise protected downtown district. AgSouth Farm Credit, expanding its corporate headquarters, will now tear down the so-called Darley Building at 4 East Vine St. While constructing a new training, meeting and employee building one block back from its front offices on South Main Street, AgSouth had used the Darley Building for some temporary offices. After the building is removed, AgSouth will create a central greenspace bracketed on three sides by its corporate buildings, as shown in plans unveiled in 2016.
