Coming down and moving on

Demolition has begun on the 10-story building on the right.  Two of my old apartment windows were those first ones from the right on the sixth floor.

My friend Alyssa took this picture, calling it "deconstruction, brick by brick."  That's her old apartment just to the left of the demolition, the one window on the top floor to the left of the worker and the window at an angle beside it with an air conditioner.  This view is from the parking lot to the right of the upper photo.
