Large sections of the fire-damaged Royal Albion’s facade have come crashing down as demolition continues.
Engineers from Dorton Group worked over the past weekend on the Grade II* listed hotel on Brighton seafront.
The cranes being used for demolition are spraying water to help reduce dust.
It comes as Brighton and Hove City Council confirmed asbestos was in the 200-year-old hotel’s textured ceiling coatings.
Brighton and Hove Council leader Bella Sankey said last week: "My heartfelt thanks continue to go to everyone working hard to respond to the aftermath of this terrible fire.
"I'm sorry that the demolition and road closures will cause noise and travel disruption. This essential work needs to take place to ensure public safety."
