View Full Version : Large explosion, possible building collapse NYC

"A worker at a nearby flea market said, "Two building have collapsed. I hope there is no in there. It's just rubble."
So far they're leaning towards gas leak. The building was undergoing renovation.
Gas leak would do it. My first question would be why they hadn't shut off the gas during renovations, but I guess they may have only been renovating a portion of a building.
