Lynx16-6A landmark office tower buckled mid-conversion this week, and the mayor's housing plan runs straight through buildings just like it.
Two columns buckled on the 21st floor of 235 East 42nd Street, MetroLoft's conversion of the former Pfizer headquarters into 1,600 apartments, forcing an FDNY evacuation Tuesday [32][104]. Crain's reports engineers believe the failure was structural, and developer Nathan Berman says the firm will rebuild all 15 affected floors [104]. The site's first safety complaint dates to spring 2025, and none of its violations were ever fined [104].
“Office-to-residential conversions are and will continue to be an important part of our response to the housing crisis.”
“I don't think this is going to chill anybody, but I think it's going to remind everybody that these projects are complicated.”
One of the city's most-visited museums just became part of the map investigators are using to hunt a bacterium that has already put 22 people in the hospital.
The Guggenheim Museum is among 31 Upper East Side buildings whose cooling towers tested positive for Legionella, the bacteria behind the borough's outbreak, city health officials said Friday [76][160]. The museum and 18 other properties have already disinfected their towers; the rest face a Saturday deadline [76]. The cluster has sickened 46 people and hospitalized 22 across three ZIP codes [76].
“What we are doing is going to the source of the outbreak and taking that off the map... that is going to cause the resolution of this cluster.”
“The Guggenheim continues to follow all New York City cooling tower requirements and regulations using third party expert companies, as we always do.”
The commanding officer accused of assaulting his own subordinate allegedly warned her that accusers don't fare well against him, then kept his command for another year.
NYPD Inspector Jeremy Scheublin, former commanding officer of the Bronx's 46th Precinct, was arrested and indicted Friday on rape, sexual abuse and official misconduct charges after prosecutors say he assaulted a subordinate officer in his precinct office in January 2025 [75][111]. He pleaded not guilty; bail was set at $75,000 bond [75][111]. Two other officers in the same precinct separately sued his successor Thursday alleging sexual harassment, which their lawyer called a "sexually compromised command" [75].
“It didn't go well for the last person who made accusations against me.”
“Alleged abuses of power of this nature demand a thorough investigation and vigorous prosecution.”
Somewhere in the city this week, someone paid real money for a pocket-sized box of actual garbage swept up outside Madison Square Garden after Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding, and they were thrilled about it. Artist Justin Gignac, who has spent two decades selling curated New York trash as art, scooped up the confetti and champagne-flute detritus a thousand celebrities left behind and packaged it as a keepsake [158]. The city charged Swift $160,000 just for the policing permit to close the block around the Garden for two days [63]; Gignac charged whatever he wanted for what the block left behind. Only here does a pop star's wedding trash outlive the wedding as a collectible.
