On Saturday morning at exactly 9:00am, Electra on the Bay in Edgewater came down very quickly in an implosion. The implosion created a loud noise and the building was completely down in about 3 seconds. Dust and smoke filled the sky. All that remained was the pool deck, which can be taken down with bulldozers.
