The old GPM building at Central Park Mall collapsed! A friend of mine just called to say that they were sitting in traffic, and the whole thing fell down!

It was being taken down floor by floor, piece by piece, but something apparently went wrong and the whole thing has fallen!!

I am trying to see if they have pics yet. So far they said the dust is incredible.

Oh my! They certainly have to watch out for asbestos in that dust that's flying around, due to the age of the building. I hope no one was hurt.

I've noticed they were demolishing it since last week with a ball and crane. There just making room for more stores at Park North. The Frost building next to it is probably next to be torn down.

Are there supposed to be any new buildings at Park North comparable to the GPM and Frost buildings? I know there's a thread about Park North around here somewhere, but im too tired from work to find it...
