Survivor recounts chaos in NYC garage collapse.

TL;DR Summary
An employee who survived the Manhattan parking garage collapse said he and his fellow workers were well aware of the cracks in the building, and that the manager who perished in the tragedy even warned ownership of the condition. The building has a lengthy history of structural issues that required substantial repairs, including 11-foot-long cracks in the walls and roof. A preliminary FDNY report concluded that the deadly collapse was likely caused by the building’s age and the number of cars on its top deck. The office of Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg said Wednesday that it will probe the cause of the collapse.
