How to build a crane

Actually, now that I look at the first picture. I think the sleeve wrapping the tower supported the entire crane while the telescoping crane removed segments from the tower. I think the tower crane used to be taller that the new building in the background, and the telescoping crane removed segments until it was low enough to remove the booms from the tower crane. Then it probably took the rest of the tower down.
