Not sure if anyone else has been following this story. One of the cables supporting the receiver platform snapped earlier in the year. While they were evaluating that situation a second cable snapped. After some engineering review it was decided that there was no safe way to repair it so the plan was to do a controlled demolition. This morning it collapsed on it's own.
