With only 3 weeks left until Martin Tower disappears forever, Phillyblast looks back at the building’s final days in this 15-minute compilation video. Phillyblast co-creators Jamie and Vivian reflect on the tower’s demise and feeling its connection to the Lehigh Valley.
Additional content features modern day relics of what Bethlehem Steel has left behind in the city’s South Side including Steel Stacks, the NMIH museum, and the company’s abandoned former headquarters. The video revisits Martin Tower in a photo gallery of exclusive images taken by Phillyblast. Extras include drone video from WFMZ-TV, and the lively “Implosion Polka” by Robbie Lawrence & the Steelworkers (both used with permission).
