What did they ever do with the logs from the '99 collapse? Are they in a warehouse somewhere or something? Just curious. Thanks.

Left out in a grassy clearing. They were already mostly overgrown when last I saw them around '05.

After the Linbeck report came out they were just left to rot.

Where?

Riverside I believe.

Maybe here....30-35-19 N, 96-21-11 W

Yep. That's them.

Where's that?

Here, by the sewage plant near Easterwood Airport.

Center pole was kept in a warehouse behind stores/surplus property for several years.

Yeah the logs are at the water treatment plant near Easterwood.
They have been there ever since they were moved from stack site .
Mostly grown over now but you can still see them

Thanks. My buddies and I always thought it was over by the water treatment plant here, but could never find them. I didn't realize there was a separate plant.

Wow, this is something I think about a couple times a year. Thanks for the info. For some reason it's really surreal looking at that aerial view. After stack fell, I would go out there once in a while, just to be there. It seemed like the logs were there forever.

They should shred those logs. What an eye sore and terrible reminder.

was still there in 2009. not sure if it's still there or not.

Wow, I just read that they did not settle the last of the lawsuits until May of 14. I bet they had to retain all the logs and centerpole as evidence until it was all over. 15 years to finally get it over. Geez.

So have they disappeared? I couldn't get the link to work and an old Google search would work but not a new one.

I think this is were they are/were. I'm guessing Google has updated their images? I thought I remembered being able to make the piles out very clearly on google before. A lot of the logs have probably been taken. I know there was someone making memorial pens out of the actual wood from the collapse. I'm sure a lot of it has just rotted away.

Yea I ran across one updated picture where there were a lot more brush cover around them but the image that was closer to yours I was having an even harder time seeing them. Thank you.
