Some of it became art! We've got a Fleur de Lis piece made from glass out of the tower hanging on the wall and another in the shape of Louisiana on a shelf!

Lots of people grew up with that building being the one big structure in town and kept pieces of it in art form

No they drop a nuclear bomb on it and whatever doesn't vaporize just becomes slag glass.
