That doesn't mean I have yet to rule out any of the possible causes in the following list:

1) A crane operator under the influence

2) Deadly attack from above from: aliens/meteors/Godzilla.

3) Illegal fireworks

Why not write a feature about being in TV commercials? It's many American's dream to be on TV like that and it'd be fascinating to hear what it's like. What products were in the commercials? I'd like to watch for you.

It appears they are saving the terra-cotta facade. I've been thus far unable to every catch anyone actually working on the project but plan to ask questions when I do.

It looks more complete than in these photos. There must be an official source on this out there...

I'm eagerly awaiting an explanation from Sound Transit. I also wrote to Historic Seattle to see if the building has any special preservation-worthy designation but I haven't heard back.

They've hired a local demolition specialist to carefully remove and preserve the terra-cotta facade for future reinstallation at the site. No permits for redevelopment or change of use at this address are on file with the city yet.
