It’s not possible to singularly determine that for every/any building built between 1950-1960 (when bolting overtook riveting as the main standard in construction). Or even outside of that decade.
That can only be answered if the answer is already well known/verified or the structure of a building is ever visible (not in a far away shot) either during its contruction or when it is being demolished.
It looks like the majority of the mass above the main base volume has been demolished so far, though that’s not really a lot since there wasnt much above the main mass. All of the “newer” reclad has been removed, this one is going relatively slow in general though.
