NEW YORK: A parking garage at least partially collapsed Tuesday in lower Manhattan’s Financial District, according to city officials and bystander video showing cars hanging precariously from a buckled upper deck. It wasn’t immediately clear whether anyone was injured.
The collapse happened in the late afternoon at a parking structure on Ann Street, about half a mile (0.8 km) from the New York Stock Exchange.
Emergency responders and buildings officials converged on the scene, with police urging pedestrians to clear out. New York Mayor Eric Adams was en route, said spokesperson Fabien Levy. He described what happened as a partial collapse.
