The property was sold to developer Gary Silversmith, of Washington, D.C. in 2013. During site preparation on Wednesday, Jan. 20, 2015, the 1937 iconic Westinghouse atom smasher was torn down. But Silversmith says he plans to preserve the structure no matter what happens to the property it was on. (AP Photo/John Heller, File)
