maybe, but there might be other ways to learn how it was damaged, someone could 
tell you, or the type of damage indicates it was vandalized.

was: can also be used for non-physical features (indeed most usage is with 
was:amenity) it doesn’t imply there is nothing left at all. There are already a 
lot of prefixes for similar lifecycle states, e.g. demolished, razed, 
destroyed, abandoned, ruins, from this point of view, “vandalized” would be one 
more, adding another nuance.
