On november 18th the BSM House was torn down. I took these shots from the same prospective over about an hour time span.
The excavator made quick work of the structer. It even divided the mason work from the wood. This feat sometimes involved delicately picking up a single 2x4 to move to the correct pile.
It was so strange to think students were living in those rooms a few months ago.
I watched the house come down with Katie, our associate director, and three students. I was a little sad but mostly exciting for what the future might hold. Buildings are not sacred shrines. Well, at least not this one. It is a tool. This instrument is being refashioned and sharpened for greater impact in the kingdom.
