| This picture was taken just minutes before the implosion from the corner of Mulberry St. and Schroeder St. On the left side (next to the "No Stopping" sign) you can just make out the top of Bldg. #1. On the right side is Bldg. #2 & Bldg. #3 respectively. The building in the foreground is Bldg. #4. | This enlarged view shows Bldg. #2 & #3 falling simultaneously. #2 collapsed to the left, while #3 went to the right. |

 |
| Last but not least, Bldg. #4 crumbles in a spectacular blast. | It wasn't until all 4 buildings were down, that this ominous cloud of dust billowed up over the city. The heavy, humid air prevented it from spreading towards most of the crowd. |

 |
| This pile of debris was once Bldg. #4, the one closest to our viewing spot. It fragmented well, and was contained within its own footprint. | OOPS!! What happened here? It looks like Bldg. #2 took down more than planned. Debris from the building crushed a 50 foot section of brick wall, spilling rubble onto the street and sidewalk. |
