That one building must have been the most photographed one of that EQ.

That house once had four floors: three flats over a garage floor.

Similar damage happened to apartment buildings in Northridge in '94.

Not me, I'm from Da Bronx, where the worst quake that I felt was a 3.6 or somthing like that back in '86.

We had to evacuate the building I work in for awhile. I'm on the top floor of the building. This place was really rocking!! I'm sure though the earthquake stopped, the building was still swaying.

Joey,

I have never been out of NY for any significant time to have missed an Earthquake.......I do not remember that.....Sure it wasnt that Texaco Plant that blew up in NJ?

lol


Hope you guys are all ok

No, I remember when the Texaco Plant that blew up in NJ happened. That sounded like a car landed on the room of the house. That incident was later in the evening. The earthquake woke me up just after 6 AM on a Saturday morning.

Though I'm positive that they have the time wrong.

Joey, I remember that earthquake too and you're right, the time on that website is wrong. I was the graveyard Manager on Duty at what is now the Doubletree Hotel at JFK when it occurred. Our switchboard lit up like a Christmas tree as quite a few of the hotel's guest were awaken.
