Elevator Shaft Collapse Leads to Parking Garage Collapse in NYC

At least one person has been killed and five others injured after a parking garage collapsed in Manhattan, NY, leaving cars piled up in crumbled concrete, the Daily Mail reports. The incident occurred at Enterprise Ann Parking at 57 Ann Street, between Nassau Street and William Street in lower Manhattan, near Wall Street and New York City Hall. The collapse occurred after an elevator shaft caved in, trapping people inside and causing the floors to fall in and “pancake” on top of each other, according to officials. Mayor Eric Adams told the media that a robotic dog, also known as a Digidog, was needed to go into the building because it was unstable. Police officials said the incident was due to a “structural collapse.”
