The Ceiling on your Head party applauds another fine example of modern architecture. Why should buildings be built to last for generations when they can conveniently fall down, making room for spacious new construction.

On July 1st a new NYC building code will take effect - unfortunately the problem in NYC is the enforcement of building code. DOB isn't interested until there is a problem like this - some architects, engineers and contractors take their work seriously - unfortunately most try to get away with doing as little as possible
