Exclusive Rodeheaver Demolition Pictures

Posted by Peter on May 19th, 2008

As some of you know, demolition began today on the lobby of Rodeheaver Auditorium here at BJU. At 12 noon they began pulverizing the old lobby. When I got back from lunch break around 12:20, then action was well underway. I had brought my digital camera to work today so that I could get pictures of the demolition. So I snapped my first pic from the sidewalk (you see it on the right).

Not satisfied with this viewpoint, I rushed up to the light booth (the windows on the front of the building situated one floor above the lobby) and snapped 3 more pictures with the claw right below me. Sweetness.


Feeling pleased with myself, I walked back outside to chat with some stage crew friends who were among the 100 or so onlookers. They had noticed me in the window (go figure) and told me that we probably weren’t allowed to go up there. Oops. :) Whatever the case may be, I came away with a few impressive shots that nobody else was able to get because I didn’t get the memo about staying out of that particular room while I was at lunch.

Boldly going where no photographer dared to venture… dun-dun-duunnn.
