Torrance Too!

It's not just Long Beach buildings that are feeling blows from an excavator. Julian Chasin snapped a few photos as the proverbial wrecking ball hit Boeing buildings 60, 61, and 62 in Torrance, California earlier this summer. The facility was not part of the main "C6" campus in Torrance, but it was home to a McDonnell Douglas/Boeing crew for nearly 10 years. (The crew moved back to Long Beach).

Located at 21000 South Normandie, the site is being prepared for the construction of over 100 townhomes. Sound familiar? Thanks again to Julian for the pictures.
