NEW YORK, NY January 10, 2007 —Three giant radio towers that have been a fixture alongside the New Jersey Turnpike for decades are due to come down tomorrow. Police in Lyndhurst approved the demolition, after halting a New York radio station from taking them down in September.

Police had cited safety concerns and the possibility some people might confuse the demolition with a terrorist attack. The 700-foot tall towers are owned by WOR and have been a landmark on the turnpike for more than 40 years. The station says the towers will come down at around 11 tomorrow morning, after one of the wires that anchors the structure is loosened.

The station's signal is now broadcast from a new set of towers and transmitter a half-mile north in Rutherford.
