Eagle Heights was the first multi to be demolished at 2:30am on the 13th of July 2008. The early time was to avoid interfering with rail services on the busy Glasgow-Edinburgh line from which the block stands just feet away. In the hours following the blast Network Rail employees searched the line for debris before the early morning commute began. Barony Heights was also demolished in Glasgow's first night time implosion. They were the first of the five blocks in the Fountainwell side of Sighthill to be demolished.
