“Learn your math. Learn a foreign language.” – Thomas Doud

We had a fantastic opportunity to go behind the scenes of the Montgomery Gardens demolition in Jersey City, NJ so we sent Haley and a crew to learn about how you bring down a building using dynamite to cause a controlled implosion.

LSC CEO Paul Hoffman was on-site the day of the demolition and watched with Jersey City Mayor and LSC Board Member, Steve Fulop from the top of The Beacon.

Cantilevered demolition is something you can learn more about in our Skyscraper exhibition.
