Demolition complete on hospital tower



31 October 2017

Orange's tallest building, the six-storey tower of the former Orange Base Hospital is no more.

Demolition crews have completed the work on the tower, and are now moving onto the four-storey wing that stood alongside the tower.

Time-lapse, drone and real-time vision was compiled for this clip.

The remaining sections of the four-storey wing are expected to be demolished in the coming weeks.



Throughout the demolition, the system of removing all hazardous materials has been the same.

With each building, a specialist team works its way through removing all hazardous material, (such as asbestos).

Once that is complete an independent hygienist signs inspects the building and 'signs-off' on that work. Then the demolition begins. This has been the process with the hospital tower.
