Hotel Absheron Demolition ~ Update

They are making good progress with the Hotel Absheron demolition, all of the room floors have been removed now.

They are currently in a big concrete pile on the floor which they have started to clear away. Note the digger in the background of the picture below, i’m not sure what it is balancing on?!

If you look closely at the picture below you can see the side of a yellow digger. This one had a bit of an accident. Apparently it toppled over onto it’s side and it’s been laying there amongst the rubble ever since. I’m not sure how they will right it again? I have visions of lots of men on the pulling end of many ropes… actually I don’t want to think about it! :O)

Sorry for the bad quality pictures, they were taken though some very dirty windows. There’s no point cleaning them until the demolition is completely finished.

    Thanks for the pictures. I would imagine that machine will be on it’s side for some time.
