The building was demolished in 2021 to make way for a larger, more modern UF Public Safety Building. [2] In lieu of demolition, an option to move the Old WRUF Radio Station a few hundred feet away was considered, but the cost to perform the move was estimated to be about $300,000. [3] Construction on the UF Public Safety Building began in April 2021. [4]
