Kinetic dirty bomb.

How about a Russian hypersonic glide vehicle (HGV) straight up or as a nearly weigh (same delivery vehicle with mixed MIRV, HGV, and countermeasure pods). That warhead's 4400 pounds arriving at mach 25 yielding in the low megaton range. Let's go with 1.2 right downtown dropped on the Minute Maid Park, where the Houston Astros play. A 5 psi blast of air will topple most buildings within the grey 9.3-mile-wide circle.
