The 22-storey Hertz Tower, an abandoned landmark in Louisiana’s Lake Charles area, met its dramatic end on Saturday as it was imploded in a controlled demolition.
A viral video of the demolition showed the structure crashing down in mere seconds. The building collapse enveloped the area in a thick cloud of dust, leaving behind a rubble pile roughly five stories high.
The building, formerly known as the Capital One Tower, was badly damaged in hurricanes Laura and Delta. The owners of the building, after making several attempts to repair it, ultimately decided to have it torn down, news agency Associated Press reported.
