The demolition of buildings for urban renewal often presents tacky problems for contractors, and the one faced by Harold LaVelle in razing the old Monarch Hotel in Los Angeles was no exception. Mr. LaVelle, owner of LaVelle Construction Co., had the job of demolishing the building with a minimum of interruption to nearby traffic and parking activities. His answer was to hoist a lightweight Bantam crane right to the eighth floor to do the job from the top down. The versatile Bantam was light enough to be lifted to the roof intact, and it went right to work without time-consuming assembly work. Further, the Bantam is doing the job virtually without disturbing the street traffic a few feet from the building. The Bantam crane was hoisted by a 60-ton crane rented from Hill Crane Service; this freed Mr. LaVelle from the purchase, maintenance, and transportation of the larger machine. The Bantam is expected to get back to the ground without outside help.
