    I’m sure if such a thing were to happen, MH would want to monetize it nowadays and apply it towards RCAF points.

    Well, typically they use shape charges placed in critical load bearing beams, causing the structure to implode. The shape charges (maybe RDX) can be placed in places that allow control over how the building collapses minimizing chances for collateral damage.

    Since the lower deck will be retained, I expect the upper deck demolition will go gingerly.

    Protecting the turf would definitely be a consideration but I’m pretty sure the lower bowl on the west side is getting ripped out too

    Are they building a ground level suite under what would be the side levee?

    Lower deck will not be retained. It too will be excavated.

    My understanding was that the whole west side will be gone and a new seating will be there with the new tower

    The lower deck is not being retain. It will be a new construction from the ground up is what I was told. Nothing existing will still be there.
