Watch: The Palace of Auburn Hills demolition from 3 angles, wreckage afterward

The Palace of Auburn Hills has reached the end of the road.

The former home of the Detroit Pistons, countless concerts and other events, was demolished Saturday morning in a successful implosion that brought the remaining skeleton of the area to the ground.

The City of Auburn Hills closed several surrounding roads to prepare for the demolition but hundreds of spectators lined the businesses across Lapeer Road to watch.

So what happens now?

"Following the detonation, the roof structure will fall to the ground in a period of four to five seconds," Stephanie Carroll, the manager of business development and community relations for Auburn Hills, told The Detroit News earlier this week.
