A 67-meter-high building near the West Lake in Hangzhou, capital of east China's Zhejiang Province, looms large in the morning ray before the demolition blast on January 6, 2007. The building, also the highest within the lake area, was torn down successfully Saturday, causing no casualty. It served as the main teaching building of the Hubin district of Zhejiang University before the demolition.
