Lucky


No body was hurt when the front wall of this boarded up building fell outward across the sidewalk. About 3:00pm today while still at work I heard a boom and then saw a lot of dust. Then all kinds of rescue, EMTs, police, and fire people showed up. The street was cordoned off and news people and cameramen were swarming. Free entertainment for all the street people and kids while the clean up commenced. 

This is across the street and about 3 doors down from where I work. WOW!

The 3 cars parked in front of the building sustained minor damage.

  5. Good thing it was a boarded up business because it would have been devastating. I'm assuming no pedestrians were injured. Amazing.

  7. Wow, glad no one was walking by when it happened, or at least were fast enough to get out of the way.
