Buffalo NPR now reporting a partial collapse of a

three story building in downtown Buffalo. It was not occupied and there were no injuries, but the collapse has disrupted traffic in the area and blocked off one entry/exit to I90.

The building was in the process of renovations, but is now expected to be demolished.

Collapses of old buildings probably happen more often than most of us realize, but the Surfside tragedy makes us more aware of them now. Fortunately, this one is not a tragedy, except for the person or company that invested in the renovations.
