Long-time Huntley resident Charles Akerberg watches as a crew from McHenry Excavating demolishes of the old Huntley Schoolhouse on Wednesday, May 17, 2017 on Main Street in Huntley. Akerberg's mother attended school in the building and his sister rented an apartment in the building. The original portion of the school was built in 1875 and added to in 1909. In about 1955, the school was turned into apartments.
