    The old Pearl Brewery building in San Antonio, TX. Some of the newer photos are misleading. They built a more modern practical building next to the original building, and to say they clash is an understatement. It's easy to see from the freeway that runs in front of the site, but I couldn't find a representative photo.

    Ocean Tower, South Padre Island, TX

    Very well built, designed to withstand hurricane force winds. The site, however, was unstable, the building started sinking and leaning. The only viable solution was demolition.

    The building fell in 13 seconds. Getting there took months.

    I just watched a special, a rerun, about Ocean Tower on Quest. It's worth watching.

    Definitely. My concern about starting one is how many images & GIFs are readily available? It might be a short-lived thread.
