Busch Stadium to be wrecked, not imploded.

The (historic*) Busch Stadium, AAblog has learned, will be torn down using conventional methods, like wrecking ball, rather than taken down quickly with dynamite. Unlike stadiums in Philadelphia, Atlanta, Pittsburgh, Seattle, and Cincinnati, Busch is surrounded by buildings in the heart of the central business district.

Conventional wrecking techniques to be used in Busch demolition

* Most post WWII buildings, although very important to contributing to our history, just like any structure built before then, yet given protection status, are not considered historic enough....
Done with ranting. I'm sure the new Busch Stadium will be a great baseball facility.
