Tower Life Building

Set your DVRs. National Geographic Channel is scheduled to air “World’s Toughest Fixes” on Thursday, Oct 7th at 7 pm CST.  The program will feature the removal of the antenna from the Tower Life Building in downtown San Antonio.  Don’t worry – if you miss the 7 pm showing there is a repeat performance at 10 pm and the shows airs again at 3 pm Oct 14th.

Anyone scared of heights better watch from the safety of the couch at home.
