The World’s Slowest Demolition Operation

Time to go and have a look at another familiar location.

This here is the former community college, I’ve visited many times before. Demolition started way back in 2020. It was now July 2023, and they still hadn’t managed to tear the three buildings down.

In fact compared with these photos from the spring of 2023, nothing seemed to have happened. If the owner didn’t have serious issues in carrying out the demolition, I didn’t know what the case was.

In fact later that autumn the authorities placed a penalty payment of 50 000 euros on the owner. That would have to be paid unless the building and all the waste were gone by June 2024.

I wouldn’t be holding my breath.
