The long-standing Alder Inn sees its final day on Monday, Nov. 16 – the Aldergrove landmark was demolished after months of standing empty.

The Alder Inn, which housed a bar, a liquor store, hotel rooms, and 91Ô­´´â€™s last strip club, had been in operation since 1948 and shut it’s doors in June of 2019.

91Ô­´´ Township voted to demolish the building located at the southeast corner of Fraser Highway and 272 Street this past July.

The municipality spent $5.4-million to purchase the hotel (at 27214 Fraser Hwy.) as well as two neighbouring lots.

The cost of demolition, estimated by Township administrator Mark Bakken, is around $250,000.

MWL Demolition Ltd. is carrying out the job.

A choice has not yet been officially put forth on what will replace the Alder Inn after the lot is emptied.
