Fishels Furniture Demolition

Demolition of the 1940s Fishels Furniture Warehouse building on the future site of 5 MLK. An excavator separates concrete from the reinforcing cage of a column. The historic guardrail of the Burnside Bridge provides a horizontal datum, from which the controversial Yard building rises.

As demolition of Fishels Furniture, then construction of 5 MLK continue, this view of Yard’s south facade will become obscured. The verticality of this first tower at the Burnside Bridgehead will be less apparent with the completion of 5 MLK.
