Nate Swain compiled this video of the demolition of a former RCN building on West 1st Street by the Haul Road in South Boston. It's coming down to make way for an eight-story office building aimed at "innovators."

Not your father's backhoe - an Excavator
The backhoe has been consigned to the invention hall of history the same way that the Flip phone came and went
Today's much more capable tool that superseded the backhoe is the Excavator -- as you can see in the video
By the way the building itself is to be part of the first few structures transforming the old industrial era landscape into the Southie / Fort-Point version of Kendall Sq. -- with a lot more to come in the vicinity of the GE Hq on Necco St.

I coulda used that rubba roof for my place down the Cape.
