Remember my capturing the destruction of this block? You can see the posts here, here and here.
This is what it looks like now. This picture is taken from the opposite side of the block, but it affords the best view of the large hole in the ground.

That hole is SO DEEP. I remember when I first took a peek and realized how deep it was; I was awed, esp. when I saw a man at the bottom of it, looking soooo small.
Ah, the pit before the high rise. We seem to have 1,000,000 of those around here! -S
Oh, it breaks my heart a little bit to see that building gone.
When I first moved to Portland, they had just broken ground on the Fox Tower. The hole was a lot like the one you pictured here . . . just amazing, almost beautiful in a way.
