Building collapses in Brooklyn

I lived 6-8 blocks north of here. My friend lives in that new condo building on the left side.

Whoa! Glad it was unoccupied at the time.
Would be interesting to see the investigation report on what caused the collapse.

Which building is it?

It's the one on the right.

I guess a remodeling fire was not sufficient.

Your right, or my right?

Nevermind, I think I see it now. I don't feel bad though, look how many firemen it took to figure out which building.

[LuFins Dad]

See what happens without a proper drainage system? They shouldn’t have used pea gravel.

@Copper that was fun to watch

[brenda]

It's amazing no one was killed.

Any insurance fraud suspected?

[jon-nyc]

Not that I know of. They said there was scaffolding on it, so they must have been doing some repairs. Seems the likely culprit.

Absolutely crazy.

And by the way, you couldn't have chosen a better position to take that photo.
