On December 3, 2005, the Zip Feed tower in downtown Sioux Falls was scheduled for demolition.

A planned explosion was to bring the tower down on its side, however, the implosion did not go as planned and the tower only dropped 20-30 feet and leaned eastward. It took 2 weeks to complete the project after a crane and wrecking ball were brought in the finish knocking it down piece by piece.

The animated image here is composed from still photos caught by our webcam located on Falls Park tower. On the right is a link to an actual video view taken by the Channel 16 Camera and crew.
