There was a building frenzy under Bloomberg, no buildings collapsed with residents inside them. No collapses in the subsequent 2 administrations. Mamdani has had a skyscraper evacuation in Midtown and 8 people die in a Brooklyn building collapse in less than a year thanks to COY.

Translation: We'll have DOB do its job until this fades from memory.

New York City is launching inspections at about 100 construction sites linked to entities involved with the site next to a Brooklyn building that collapsed, Mayor Zohran Mamdani said Thursday. Eight people, including two children, died and 18 others were injured in the collapse. Crews are continuing to search for survivors.

@brooklynstewa @BrianWelsome DOB is the investigating agency and the deputy commissioners are both engineers.

[Queens Crapper @QueensCrapper]

I think it's clear what happened here. Undermined the foundation causing the loss of an entire building plus the firewall next door. People dead and injured. City of Yes in action.

[Paperboy Prince for NY❤️😍❤️ @PaperboyPrince]

My sister lives right next door to here - thanking God she is ok. Praying for the families affected ❤️❤️❤️ this was many of our issues with how the city and Mayor are handling the “build build build” - rushing to gentrify Brooklyn, many of the construction workers aren’t well trained and we try to fit buildings too close together. We need more housing, but safety must be a priority as well ❤️

[Queens Crapper @QueensCrapper]

@brooklynstewa @4STOT0NzTa1Q7vW There is knowledge, the DOB documented it already.

[TMurkem @TMurkem]

The coincidence of the NYC transplants/ gentrification conversation happening and an older building in Brooklyn decides to collapse.

And they’ll never understand the issue.

[Steven Bognar @Bogs4NY]

Proposed plans for 2625 Bedford Avenue in Brooklyn ... that's the area behind the green fencing next to the building that collapse into the construction site

@cotedc5 @mlmlmlml31 It's capitalism that socialism gave a full-throated endorsement of. They could have blocked City of Yes. They chose to pretend it would solve the housing crisis.

[Queens Crapper @QueensCrapper]

The building demolished had been a health clinic/senior center up until 2020 when NYC/NYS leadership forced its closure due to COVID. It then sat empty and listed "for lease" until City of Yes passed. Then an application for a 9-story building was submitted.

[Queens Crapper @QueensCrapper]

Why do native New Yorkers don’t like transplants?

Allow me to explain

[Queens Crapper @QueensCrapper]

@AGibney14643 @NYCLegendd @bklnfin3st @mlmlmlml31 The City of Yes was unanimously voted on by the Progressive and DSA members of the City Council. So no, Americans are not "painfully dumb" for noticing it.

[Queens Crapper @QueensCrapper]

N Tech Design of America worked on the Bedford Ave collapse site. This seems bizarre. I guess you get what you pay for.

[Queens Crapper @QueensCrapper]

@AGibney14643 @NYCLegendd @bklnfin3st @mlmlmlml31 The progressives/socialists embraced capitalism when they passed City of Yes.

[Queens Crapper @QueensCrapper]

@Catheri24117613 These are 2 separate complaints. One by FDNY and the other via 311.

[Queens Crapper @QueensCrapper]

Looks like they already determined the cause and someone out there who knows what they are talking about submitted an inquiry.

[Queens Crapper @QueensCrapper]

@Mink The DOB determined that the contractor undermined the building causing the collapse and entered that in the SWO.

[Queens Crapper @QueensCrapper]

@Mink The collapse happened around 4pm, the FDNY notified buildings 10 minutes after responding. The second complaint was entered afterward by someone who pulled the info, which is easy to do through DOBNOW.

[David Brand @DavidFBrand]

The project team behind the Flatbush construction site where an apartment building collapsed blew off a Dept of Buildings stop work order and proceeded with demolition earlier this year

The owner was approved for a 3-story bldg but submitted a new plan for 9-stories in Sept
