Well, that was fast. After pausing for a Department of Buildings inspection this morning, workers got the go-ahead to reenter the site and resume demolition at 1 p.m.
By 4 p.m., the excavator was back at work chomping on the brick. Demolition often takes two or three days or more. Not this time. By 5:20 today, the mansion was gone.
