Other structures built out of the repurposed bricks. Maybe not much, but something. The same kind of evidence we find near the Pyramids, probably. Certainly more than you've offered here. "It could have happened this way," without evidence, is nothing more than a guess, regardless of how reasonable your ad hoc assumptions might be.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_of_Babel
In the History section King Nebuchadnezzar wrote of it describing what was left in his day, three other historeans wrote of it, and Alexander the Great destroyed what was left and tried to rebuild it.
How's that for proof pinkster? 4 Points of non biblical history.
The history section of that article suggests that stories of the Tower of Babel are based on the Hebrew exposure to the Ziggurat of Babylon. What you have there is a Jewish story about a monument that was foreign to them, and upon which Gaud took offense because it was too tall. Just because the Jews based their story on an actual tower, doesn't make the story they told historically factual.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
