It could have been a national landmark.

          On December 3, 2005, the 80 year old Zip Feed Tower was set to be tipped over by explosives. Misjudgements left the building 42 ft. shorter and leaning severely. After the laughter died down, the decision was made to bring in the wrecking ball to finish the job.

  
We installed this ornamental iron fence behind the Crane building on 8th St., downtown Sioux Falls.

Bill Michaels smiles in the humor of it all.
