The demolition of the structures on the former Radisson Hotel site will begin Jan. 10 in order to make way for the new Marriott Vacation Club.

Marriott Vacation Club International (MVCI) purchased the Radisson property this summer and will convert the hotel rooms and suites into timeshare-like ownership units.

Vinnie Grasser, the development manager for Marriott Ownership Resort, Inc., and William Rose, regional manager of D.H. Griffin Wrecking Company, Inc. of Tampa, presented the demolition plan Wednesday at the Hilton Marco Island Beach Resort. Several executives of the Hilton and Marco Island city staff attended the briefing and question and answer session.

Mac Chaudhry, general manager of the Hilton, said that he was pleased with the plan.
