Tower Block Demolition in Slow Motion

Glasgow's skyline has been changed with the demolition of the last of the Red Road flats.
The remaining high-rise blocks were brought down together by controlled explosion. Several residents in neighbouring properties had to be forced to leave the exclusion zone put in place for the demolition. They told BBC Scotland they were concerned about damage to their properties. A controversial plan to demolish five of the blocks as part of the Commonwealth Games opening ceremony last summer was dropped. When built they were considered the answer to the city's housing problem but became rundown and vandalised.
