Manhattan high-rise faces catastrophic collapse risk

A former Pfizer Pharmaceuticals headquarters building in midtown Manhattan is experiencing a structural emergency after workers discovered buckled steel beams, columns and cracks on the 21st floor during conversion to residential apartments. The building and approximately 10 surrounding structures, including a hotel and school with 400 children, have been evacuated as multiple floors have begun to sag. Emergency crews are attempting to stabilise the high-rise with steel reinforcements, though officials warn of a potential catastrophic collapse.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
