Original Toronto Star caption: Biting the dust: East York Mayor Alan Redway swings the wrecking ball into action yesterday as wreckers start demolishing the Bayview Ghost - a seven-storey partly completed structure on the Bayview Extension that has haunted East York for 22 years. It will take about a month to knock it down.
