This location doesn't seem to have changed much since the last update in 2017. All of the walls are still there, and laying on the ground. Except for a section at the southeastern corner of the building.
The driveway/trail leading up to the site indicates a decent level of foot traffic and some vehicle traffic. Most likely folks walking their dogs. There are some other trails that connect to this driveway as well which would account for the vehicle traffic.
Looks like some of the locals got together at some point for a night out. There are plenty of couches/sofas sitting in the building.
These last few shots were captured from the air.
The tower is still standing and it appears all of the guy wires are still intact. The tower stands approximately 40 meters in height according to the altitude reading on my drone's app. The last image is 15 photos stitched together taken from 120 meters up and gives a good overview of the site as it currently sits. Image should be more or less lined up with north being at the top.

I went back in November 2022 to see if the tower was still standing after that massive windstorm/derecho that rolled through the area in the summer. The tower doesn't appear to have been noticeably affected in the slightest.
