WATCH: Baltimore demolition crew just tore down the wrong building
The Baltimore City Department of Housing outsourced an emergency demolition of an old row house with a “bowing exterior wall” and massive crack in the wall to K&K Adams. Neighbors gathered to watch the blighted building finally taken down. That’s when they witnessed the excavator topple the building next door instead.
According to a Baltimore Sun report, 214 E. Fort Ave. partially collapsed in a matter of seconds, leaving only a cloud of dust and debris.
“We were like, ‘Oh my God!'” neighbor Lauren Singer said.
Attached buildings are demolished frequently in the east coast city, but not this one, and no one is revealing why.

Oops.
My bad😊
Pretty obvious that the one next door was ready to fall down on its own anyway.
Too bad they didn't just continue the demolition all over Baltimore.
Don't believe in ridiculous suits but this I would jump right on ---HOW DO YOU SAY DOUBLE CHECK BEFORE YOU DEMOLISH!
Dugh !! Did I do that ?????
