Technically it still hasn't (completely) come down. Parts of it still stand, highly decorated with mural art. But its demolition did begin on November 9, 1989, as people began attacking it with hand tools. Physically it may not have been much of a dent in it, but those hammer-and-chisel efforts reflected the fact that it was no longer a functioning wall.
