I have heard that the former East River Savings Bank/Century 21 (Walker & Gillette, 1933-34) may also have suffered serious damage with debri falling on and thorugh its roof. --Andrew Dolkart

What I saw when I was down there was that the tall windows facing Church Street - probably bronze, but not sure- are blown out. The masonry seemed intact. I did not notice the roof collapse but perhaps this is only visible from above. I don't think the roof collapsed. -- Alex Herrera
