What's next for buckling Manhattan high-rise? Some evacuation orders stay in place

A Manhattan high-rise under construction, located at the former Pfizer headquarters, was stabilized Tuesday after facing a collapse risk. A safety manager reported a compromised steel beam on the 21st floor, while the Fire Department noted two buckling support columns and sagging upper floors. Although some evacuations of nearby buildings were lifted, other orders remain. This project, scheduled for completion in 2027, is intended to be the largest of its kind in New York City history.
