All correct, but it sure feels arbitrary. Especially when the thing looks almost exactly like the pole on top of Commerce Court West with the only differences in appearance being trivial in nature; It's placed in the exact center of the building rather than being offset and lines up with some...

It was dropped in 2012 in what was just about the most anti-climatic explosive demolition ever for outside spectators as they couldn't see anything because of the early morning fog. Someone did take a video of the event from inside the grounds though which was actually somewhat dramatic...
