Cool how close they’re able to stage the new construction to the demolition!

It's honestly a bit unnerving but I trust they know what they're doing. I love how they have some pieces of plywood down in case of debris splatter. Probably holding off on pouring that floor slab on purpose I'd guess....

"And we are ready for the final section of Volpe to collapse to the right.... and it is going left, OMG!"
 
I walked by the site yesterday and my favorite detail is the cab in the yellow crane, which is reclined at a 45 degree angle so the operator doesn't have to crane his neck. Like working from an extremely powerful lazyboy.
