Building Implosion

Thinking about it, as I work literally 4 blocks away and have access to the parking garage. However, there's a tall building in between my building and the Landmark Tower, so I don't know how much I could see even from the 21st floor.

Long discussion of the implosion, along with various deconstruction pics, at http://www.fortwortharchitecture.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=1171

Gasp!! My mom had an office in there before she retired 1988 & is located across the street from our old Haltom’s Jewelers location. That building was a classic & they really didn't build them like that anymore. It's a shame that it's just going to wind up being a parking lot. I might be heading down there & get some photos

 

Holy Crap!!! I could hear the blast from Casa de Huber.

Btw, I would have gone over there to check it out but I'm just not a fan of standing around in a rainstorm.

 

Here is a video I took this morning. I am sad to see her gone, should of been restored in my opinion
