A part of a 20-storey public housing building in the Bronx collapsed Wednesday morning after a reported gas explosion in an incinerator shaft. Luckily, no injuries were reported and residential units remain safe. Emergency crews rushed to the scene and secured the area, while an investigation is underway into the cause. The building is part of New York City’s public housing system, NYCHA, which has faced long-standing issues with aging infrastructure and poor maintenance. Mayor Eric Adams has urged residents to stay clear of the site until safety checks are complete. This incident again raises questions about the state of public housing safety in America’s largest city. Follow Informed 360. Stay Safe, Stay Informed.
