Some bricks were saved, but SO MUCH great stuff, door casings, tin ceilings tile, plumbing fixtures etc..was lost to wrecking pile...If only I had the warehousing space to store all that great stuff.
Someday maybe.
I'm shocked and saddened to hear that in this day and age all that great 1885 stuff was just trashed. What a tragedy. What was the rush to wreck the buildings? That's pretty rare to see so much antique artifacts like that coming out of the buildings and just getting crushed. Wow. Hard to believe, isn't it?

Really great stuff. Love the sound effects on that one too.Say, what happened to all the bricks and salvage from that 1885 school that was demo'ed in Jersey? Too bad nobody wanted to save the buildings.
Sound effects were extracted from video from that day...to make it work..

Armed with their Komatsu PC1250 equipped with a Jewell Demolition Package, a 100 foot Jewell High Reach, a 20 foot extension and 6.5 tons of additional counterweight the machine weighs in at 200 tons.
Each furnace, with a diameter of over 30 feet, is stuffed with a honeycomb of fire brick totaling over 5,000 cubic yards of material. Enough to fill approx. 8 railroad cars each.
