57 Ann Street in lower Manhattan, no report of injuries or fatalities as yet, pray for the hurt and injured.

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

Awful!  I hope no one was injured.

 

I hate parking garages and always have an urge to duck my head when in one.  I try t avoid them when I can but sometimes it's the only choice.

Fox News just showed a gentleman on a gurney being transported to an ambulance.

You do not park your own car in this type of a garage, the attendent gives you a ticket and they park your car for you

What happened?  Did someone ram a vertical structural support?

Please avoid Ann Street between Nassau Street and William Street.

I've been watching...this garage structure was an accident waiting to happen. Manhattan has so many challenges.  This was true when I worked in Manhattan, but it has deteriorated rapidly over the last couple of years.  I understand the New York State of Mind and my wishes are for safety and the ability to live a peaceful fulfilling life for NYC residents.  Let's hope there are no more injuries/death reported.  Prayers for victims and their families.

Awful.

 

At least one fatality and can you just imagine if your car were crushed?

The FDNY deployed its mechanical dog when the structure was deemed too unstable for firefighters to enter.

 

Streaming video could assess the situation and look for survivors.

 

Drones were also used for an aerial view.
