近所に６０年住んでいた老夫婦が施設に入った。残された家と土地は建て売り住宅メーカーに売られた。老夫婦がいなくなってすぐに解体工事が始まりあっというまに更地になった。解体から建築　竣工まで記録する。
解体工事がはじまった。老夫婦がいなくなって1週間も経っていない。
60年以上生活をしてきた場所がたった5日間で更地になった。
重機のアームが家の屋根にかかると、紙で出来た家のように簡単につぶれた。
土地の真ん中に塀が出来た。2棟の住宅が建つようだ。

English

The old couple who had lived in the neighborhood for 60 years entered into a home for the aged. The remained house and land were sold to a ready-built house. Just after they began to move there, demolition work was started and a vacant lot appeared in an instant. I'll record the dismantle, construction, and completion from the beginning to end.
The dismantle work started. No more than one week hadn't passed yet after they left.
It was needed only 5 days to make the property where they had lived for more than 60 years vacate.
When a heavy machine's arm was on the house's roof, it was destroyed easily just like a house of paper.
A wall was built in the center of the ground. It seems that two houses are to be built.

The old couple who had lived in the neighborhood for 60 years moved into a home for the aged. The house and the land that were left behind were sold to a ready-built house maker. Just after they moved out, demolition work was started and a vacant lot appeared in an instant. I'll record the dismantle, construction, and completion from the beginning to end.
The dismantle work started. No more than one week had passed after the old couple left.
It took only 5 days to turn the place into a vacant lot from the place where they lived for 60 years.
When a heavy-duty vehicle's arm caught onto the roof of the house, it was destroyed easily just like a house made of paper.
A wall was built in the center of the empty lot. It seems that two houses are to be built.
