Detroit's Packard Plant Demolition: 11-22-24 Update. One Week's Progress; Closing In On The Finish!

[@RADIUMGLASS]

It may have closed almost 70 years ago, but there were tenants throughout the plant leasing out space into the 2000s. I'll always remember the facade on the Administration building and the carved "PACKARD 1907".

Three machines working, I guess that means they are trying to get things done before winter sets in.

KZbinrs should start exploring the abandoned romeo ford plant, its been closed like 6 years

[@michaelpjeffries1521]

It is a slow process reclaiming industrial land. Ironically the non automoblie based developments with walking scores are much sought after. Like Vancouver in the 70's reclaiming portlands with rockies as inspirational backdrop.

Идёт демонтаж старого завода или старого цеха. Что-то будут строить новое для граждан Детройта чтобы было новые рабочие места, я так думаю если логический рассуждать, тоесть надеюсь.

Скорее всего, жильё. Соседний корпус для этих целей сохранён. Последний корпус под вопросом.

I guess the water tower is gone now

[@mbwell]

Not sure why the city is planning to preserve any parts of the building. Secondly, why is water being wasted for this effort?

[@patrickmartin6977]

It's required by law to keep dust down because concrete dust is harmful

[@mbwell]

@ I don’t necessarily believe that assumption. Whenever there is a demolition involving explosives, there is very little that can be done to control dust. Yet, explosion demolitions are frequently done and actually attracts live audiences

To keep dust down.

[@FrankaiVideos-DetroitsComeback]

With 60,000 blighted structures torn down recently, the water protocol reflects a respect for nearby homes and businesses. No "other cities " are in this position, and Detroit is unique in its progress.

[@PhantasyStarved]

This guy wants to rig an entire city block with explosives with people living nearby and have them watch while having asbestos and lead and god-knows-what-else contaminating everything downwind for miles lmao. Someone should explain how we've already had problems with contractors not following guidelines and leaving single family home demolitions with contaminated lands where nothing grows, let alone projects this large. The environmental cleanup costs a lot more than a tiny bit of water, trust us.

Wrecking balls aren't used very much anymore.

[@patrickpardo6734]

Been closed for seventy years.

[@Kevin-wj4ed]
