After nearly two years, the day finally arrived for the demolition of our River House to make way for the new one. The entire process took less than 4 hours of actual work. Several neighbors stopped in to watch and Jeanine was able to catch the early stages. Work paused for a few hours while a hydraulic hose was repaired, damaged while pulling down a section of the roof. The excavator operator was highly skilled and brought the entire structure down very neatly within the footprint of the building. I filmed the day from start to finish with three different cameras in 4K resolution. Above is a single-camera edit sped up by 100 times and reduced to HD resolution. It is 2 minutes long. Below is a version that is 10x real-time and 20 minutes long for anyone who wants to really scrutinize the gory details.
