Double Implosion

Submitted by jimmylee42 on Sat, 07/14/2012 - 7:29pm.

I watched the implosion of the Marion Hotel and also the 14 story Grady Manning Hotel as they went off simultaneously. The hotels were on the same block and now the Peabody Hotel and Statehouse Convention Center occupy that space.

Three observations

Submitted by OTY on Sat, 07/14/2012 - 2:26pm.

1. The life of this building was about the same as that expected of a human being, approximately three score and ten.

2. "Miss Jones, next time you contact our supplier, please order another 144 pairs of identical curtains."

3. Be our transitory window display simply by occupying a chair in the window and be looked at for as long or short a time as you wish.
