To the Editor:
By chance, I happened to take a drive to a relative’s house on LBI on Oct. 21. As I approached my destination, I realized a nearby oceanfront house was in the early stages of being demolished. Never having witnessed such an event before, I was awestruck and spent some time observing the process. The power with which the heavy-duty construction equipment ripped into the exterior walls of the house was amazing.
Unfortunately, my feeling of awe suddenly turned to disgust as part of the side wall of the house came crumbling down.
