Title: | It took over six months to bring down the fourteen stories of 100 Gold. The Hand-mixed concrete had to be smashed with a punch, and then the steel reinforcement rods had to be cut by burners. With all the buildings disappearing around it 100 Gold seemed somehow to always still be there. Its last two floors were pulverized by a shovel and ball. from The Destruction of Lower Manhattan
