Philly Dwelllar rollcall required

Obviously it's a major screw up. Demolition near other buildings is very tricky, and that's why they normally use something small like a backhoe to do it a little at a time. Obviously that backhoe operator made a bad mistake.

There's still a scar in the street in front of my work where a concrete pillar from the demolition of the old convention center fell the wrong way and slammed right into the intersection. It missed cars stopped at the red light by about 10 feet, and also pedestrians who were in that crosswalk. (I witnessed it come fall.) They hurriedly cleaned it up and cleared the intersection in about 30 seconds or so, and I never saw anything about it anywhere. My post is probably the only written record of it.
