Comments by "Seven Proxies" (@sevenproxies4255) on "Flak Towers: Useless? Response with @MilitaryAviationHistory" video.

I heard something on the radio the other day. Is it true that the land owners really can't demolish the old flak towers because the amounts of explosives that it would require would also end up destroying adjacent buildings in the same neighbourhood? If this is is true, then "built to last" is certainly a bit of an understatement

@dirtydan2721 It's because of germans and austrians being the way they are. The war is an extremely touchy subject, and having Hitlers giant flak towers sitting right smack in the middle of your city would be a constant reminder of the reich. They are raised and taught to hate their countries past before they can even walk after all.
