Definition
Destroyed or tore down something completely, usually a building, structure, or argument, leaving little to nothing behind.
Etymology
From Old French 'demolir,' from Latin 'demoliri' combining 'de-' (down) and 'moliri' (to move or construct). The word entered English in the 16th century.
Kelly Says
Demolition has become an exact science—modern crews use explosives calculated to the millisecond to implode buildings in specific directions, because uncontrolled demolition can cause damage to nearby structures worth millions, making precision absolutely critical.
