That would be horrifying. Hopefully everyone gets out and makes a full recovery.

Crazy scene. Saw a pit with cars piled and laying in all directions. 1 fatality confirmed and the building has been declared structurally unsound.

Bet this partially gets blamed on electric cars being heavier.

No, the hipsters in NYC will blame cars in general, I think that is worse.

I am still waiting for that day where my tires get slashed for driving a SUV because "for earth".

I just walked by the area. Obviously every entry into this street was blocked off by cops so I can't get close.

Probably the same circumstances, too.
Flat slab construction, four or five decades old, observable spalling for several years, half-assed maintenance, and so on and so on.

half-assed maintenance,


heard this did it in. they didn't fix the pool or pillars. water leaked and damaged the foundation.
but those other things mentioned did it in much faster too.

So.
Old building
Known structural issues twenty years ago
Overloaded roof

Assholes parking like this certainly didn't help:
