Intel Shell was an unfinished Intel building located in Austin, Texas. It was imploded on February 23rd, 2007, and the Austin United States Courthouse now stands in its place.[1][2]
Halting the building
It was abandoned from March 2001 to 2004 by pain, because Intel abruptly stopped its construction.[3]
Planning for a federal courthouse before demolition
In 2004, the U.S. government closed a long deal to buy a site for a new courthouse.
Aftermath
A few days after the implosion, David Weaver, tried to sell many bottles that comes with the label “Intel Shell Inside” with the left overs for 20$.[4]
In 2009, a courthouse started its construction process and was completed in 2012, and the Austin U.S. courthouse stands today.
