A disturbingly fragile building; all that un-reenforced brickwork and wooden framework. An accident waiting to happen. Good looks and sentiment do not save lives in a disaster.
This is the third such video I have seen today. It is the best, with good working pace, good and interesting editing, and nobody jabbering endlessly in the background.
I agree about the lumber (timbers). It's waste to just mash it up carelessly. It would have been worth the contractors while to pile it up for sale.
Look at all that old growth lumber that’s going to waste, it would make some beautiful furniture.
Don't bet on it. There are numerous outfits who salvage structural timbers such as these. Back in the day, they may have gone to a landfill etc but no more. Heart pine and old growth fir are extremely valuable for flooring, paneling etc. I'm sure someone somewhere was aware that this building was going to come down and had a look inside. The problem with the stuff is, even if they gave it to you, you have to be able to handle it, move it, store it etc. and items like 12 x 12,s are HEAVY and AWKWARD. Trust me, been there, done that.
jerome clements I sure hope so that wood can become some beautiful things.
@@davidglaum2538 Yes it can. When you get out into rural areas of the US, you'll find barns and other outbuildings built using Elm, Sycamore, White Oak etc which makes very nice furniture. There are hundreds of makers who specialize in just such items.
Ya I sure hope the burn it.
I remember hearing that this building was going to be made into condos. That would've been nice for the downtown core
Excellent dust control operation... There's nothing like a smell of fresh dust in the morning...
Such a shame, it looked a lovely red-bricked building.
NO STEEL
Excellent Video and good steady camera work.
Thank you!
Such a perfectly good and useable building. It looked like it was in great shape. What a waste!
The same happend to us in Germany, with this old Industrial Houses.
Smashin' job..
Sad to see it come down ; but it was way too easy to come down.
News flash: just about any building looks like it comes down easily in the grips of machinery like this.
@@mugwump242 the same can be said about any large machine that has "munchy claws"
That building looks like a good wind would take it down. It's safer to take it down!!!
i don't know why the owner was holding out so long against the city, would have taken millions to fix it all up. funny he put in all the new windows but didn't take the time to remove them,
great video of it coming half down. hope you have more to come.
Current owner not responsible for placing new windows, windows were put in by a former owner who constructed the two storey model suites located in the basement and ist floor
its very very good work. kollkata old billding demollison very importan
Hey I got it thanks for the vediogrratjobonit💯
Imerci j’aime beaucoup regarder ces vidéos
Dangerous operator not pre planning what to take out first just pulling at the building
Just think a German world war 11 ,half tonne bomb would of brought that building down in 3 seconds flat . We know here in Britain thats for sure .
What will be the replacement of that abandoned building?
Not sure,,, It's just an empty lot right now
Does anyone know: What is the purpose of the worker in the man lift? He doesn't appear to do anything. Is it some ceremonial thing? It seems odd. Thanks.
Guy in the man lift is directing the machine operator. The appears to be a 60ft reach on the machine so the operator can't see anything once the claw attachment goes past the exterior wall. So the guy on the man lift will be saying left right up down open close ect. Also why the operation seems slow and of course having to work the front of the property with a open road and bus station next door in the center of the busiest part of the downtown core. Schouten must have bought a new toy since i lasted worked on their gear.
so much dust and no water to reduce it.. bad planning
What the hell is the guy doing in the man lift?
this video would only be about 15 seconds long if they just imploded it lol
Would have also made for an awesome video!
A proper demolition with explosives needs good preparation, is expensive and is only feasible in the right location... Most of the times, an excavator is cheaper and faster, because you have to crush the concrete/bricks anyways and sort wood and metal out. If you blow it up, that leaves a huge pile and you can clean up the mess for days.
what a clumsy bastard, downright dangerous operator
