Controlled blasts to bring down cranes at New Orleans hotel collapse site

1 / 2Hotel CollapseNew Orleans Fire Department personnel stand by the scene of the Hard Rock Hotel in New Orleans, Wednesday, Oct. 16, 2019. New Orleans officials say the chances of a missing worker's survival after the collapse are diminishing, and they have shifted their efforts from rescue to recovery mode. News outlets report Fire Department Superintendent Tim McConnell says they shifted Wednesday ahead of a possible tropical storm.

Officials hope to bring the towers down Friday without damaging nearby businesses and historic buildings in and around the nearby French Quarter. They also want to avoid damage to electrical and natural gas lines. Fire Chief Tim McConnell said work was to begin Thursday, with workers suspended in buckets using torches to weaken the multi-ton towers in key spots. The taller crane is about 300 feet high.

An 18-story hotel project under construction collapsed Saturday , killing three workers. Two bodies remain in the wreckage.
