I don't think a wrecking ball is being used

The (big) crane has a drill rig on it. They were drilling on the hill yesterday. They are using excavators to rip the building apart
I dunno The blue roll offs almost make me think McPherson from topeka cause no one around here has blue ones (tthat I can think of). That's just a guess tho.
would be great if they did one of those over the top implosion events on such a small two story building

They also have cool hardhats with Vanier 2.0 on themRight, but are they the ones actually doing the demolition? My experience with Mortenson has been that they are just a GC and hire other contractors to perform most of the work.

Remember when Willie did that skit (in 99 maybe?) where he put a lazy boy out at midfield and plopped down and had a hilariously oversized clicker and just watched TV on the minitron?

That's just a guess tho. Not a bad guess, but those roll offs don't look glossy like McPherson's. Matte roll offs like those are generally from Oregon.
