SIOUX CITY, Iowa (KTIV) -

Monday night, we told you how city leaders approved a development agreement to build the new Bishop Heelan high school. Work is already underway.

Tuesday morning contractor W.A. Klinger began demolition of existing parking lots, streets and alleys.

Dan Ryan, the interim president of the Bishop Heelan Catholic Schools, says a formal groundbreaking is still a few weeks away.

The first phase of work will cost $15-million, and includes demolition of the old building, the cost of land for the new school, and construction of the "fine arts wing"... including an auditorium, which the school doesn't have.
