Just opposite the building I work in, they started tearing down an old
warehouse sort of structure to build a new supermarket; during the day,
I was biting my nails to hope I could get home, pick up camera, and
back in time to take photos. Luckily the con(de?)struction guys were
hard at work well into the evening, so I managed to get some shots off
while there was still something left.
It was incredible how fast a large earthmover can tear a building
apart; there's lots of new development going on around here, so I'm
used to seeing wood-framed buildings torn apart. This one was steel,
concrete, and brick -- and it still was about as sturdy as wet paper in
the face of the large orange instrument of destruction...
