Eastbound and down: Burt Reynolds Hall at FSU demolished for more parking
The area will be turned into a flat gravel lot considered for parking.
While namesake Burt Reynolds was not a financial contributor to the building, Seminole Boosters, Inc. wanted to pay tribute to the former FSU football player and Hollywood icon.
Reynolds, who died in 2018, attended the ribbon cutting and dedication in 1987, along with wife Loni Anderson and fellow actors Dom DeLuise, Bernie Casey and Ricardo Montalban.
Seminole Boosters, Inc., previously owned the 60-unit complex on Hayden Road for 36 years, selling it to the FSU Research Foundation in 2020.
