"“The storm knocked off [the wall],” said Tom Hassan, a resident of the building between Court and Clinton streets. “It happened all at once.”The crack first appeared after the storm and expanded on Tuesday before splitting the facade in half, said Hanna Abuhamdeh, a relative of the building’s landlord who lives at the residence. There were no injuries."
Sackett Street was closed off until at least 9 pm last night, although there appeared to be no danger to anyone driving by.
The current owner of this building has had 2 Lis Pendens filed since one on 5/10/2010 (mortgage foreclosure) and one on 7/10/2009 (tax lien). Check the deed record of this building on Property Shark or ACRIS it's history makes a great read. A few years ago there was a fire in this building also. You can still see the fire damage of the structure now that facade has fallen off.
