 * Symbol confirmed.svg Article is newly expanded, long enough, and doesn't violate policy on neutrality, sourcing and plagiarism. Hook is verified inline to a reliable source, short, and fairly interesting. I would change "demolished" (usually reserved for buildings and structures) to "destroyed", which would match the article and citation. QPQ has been completed.
