Drone footage of Candlestick Park demolition

The demolition of Candlestick Park is almost finished, with construction crews clearing out the rubble. ABC 7 Bay Area sent out an unmanned drone on Thursday to get a little bit more footage. There are still a few parts of the stadium still up, including one of the escalators, but much of the area is flattened.

There has been talk of a mega development and housing project. I have not seen updates since last year, but at the time there was discussion of 16 blocks of retail, 478 affordable homes, and 755 market-rate homes. The process slowed when neighbors complained about imploding the stadium. The stadium was instead torn down at a much slower rate. Once it is completely down and the area is cleaned up, I imagine we will hear plenty more about the development project.
