Trading Dumpsters

I can't resist another blip (after yesterday's) of the demolition of the house in the rear of our condo (it will be rebuilt in more attractive form for us to rent). The demolition process fascinates me. Here's the house before.

The shot shows workers in the process of covering a full dumpster (container) so that it can be hauled away (the empty replacement container is visible in the background waiting on the street). It was early afternoon: they had already replaced one dumpster in the morning. The workers doing the demolition wear elaborate masks to protect against inhalation of harmful dusts; the two persons in green-yellow shirts are just briefly there from the hauling company and thus don't need the masks.
