Pedestrians and drivers in lucky escape as building facade falls into road.
Demolition of a building on Denison Parkway in Corning, New Yorl didn’t go according to plan Thursday evening. During the process, a large section of the façade came crashing down into the street. The lane closest to the building was closed, but the other three lanes had vehicles driving by consistently.
No one appeared to be hurt in the incident and the demolition crew temporarily blocked off all traffic to clean up the fallen debris, some of which fell all the way across the street. A lamp post in front of the building was crushed.
This the second of two buildings being torn down to create more parking space on Market Street. The first came down last week.
