Impressive implosion of an 18-story glass tower in Atlanta

CHAMBLEE, Ga. (NBC, KYMA) - An 18-story glass tower located in the Atlanta suburb of Chamblee is no more.

The building came tumbling down Saturday around 7:45. In a matter of seconds it was safely on the ground, with plumes of dust filling the air.

The tower was once home to the Georgia Department of Revenue.

But has been vacant since early 2025, when the agency moved its headquarters to a more modern facility a few miles away.

There is no word yet on future development plans for the property.
