Buckled Columns at Midtown Construction Site | Dallas News
Description
Bricks raining from the sky? Buckled columns on a 38-story building? That’s the wild scene unfolding at 235 East 42nd Street, where a construction site turned into a high-stakes safety nightmare. Two massive columns on floors 21 and 22 gave way, triggering cracks and sagging floors up to the 26th floor. No injuries, but eight nearby buildings and a school were evacuated—traffic shut down for blocks. A veteran ironworker called it “super dangerous,” saying he’s never seen a beam bend like that. Officials are racing to secure the site while investigating what caused the collapse—safety first, answers to come.
