New Apartment Buildings 02/1973

from U.S. National Archives

  That's the old Olympic Village (Villa Olimpica) in San Juan. Built for the 1979 Pan American Games, they got imploded around 1996 in what was then the largest implosion ever. I think you can find it on YouTube. The buildings were used as subsidized housing after the games. They had been poorly built to begin with, and then were badly managed. By the early eighties they were in terrible shape and many of the original residents had abandoned their apartments.
