A little more info, the parking lot that the arrow runs across has been dug out to about a depth or 30-40 feet, with the extracted material creating a berm surrounding the pit.
The explosives will begin towards the top, beginning the collapse. Explosives will then go off at the base on one side, then immediately afterwards on the the other, causing the building to collapse first in the opposite direction that the arrow is pointing, and then down upon itself into the pit.
After collapse, the rubble is expected to be 6 stories tall and take 3 months to clear out. The man in charge of this whole operation in a meeting last week told us that he doesn't expect anything to even hit the street, outside of dust. They have wrapped the building in chicken wire from the top down to about the 6th floor, and chain link fence from about 4 down. the last 4 floors or so are completely gutted.
It has been quite interesting to watch the progression.
