When the old Kosciuszko Bridge was energetically felled this last October, it marked the first time that a bridge was taken down with the use of explosive charges in New York City. In this incredible 360° video from Skansa USA, the team behind the demolition, see the demolition from directly underneath and beside it.
After constructing the first phase of New York City’s new Kosciuszko Bridge – providing a safer and smoother crossing – it was time to carefully demolish the original. Through the eyes of five, strategically-positioned 360-degree cameras, view how Skanska USA safely executed the explosive finale.
