329 MacDonough Loses Shoring

329-macdonough-032911.jpg
329 MacDonough was heavily covered here after a wall collapse, vacate order, and the possibility of demolition. #329 and #331, both historical landmarks, were ultimately saved, with the building inspector calling it “one of the most complicated engineering plans I’ve worked on. We haven’t written about the site since April of last year, and when we stopped recently by we found the shoring and sidewalk shed gone. The debris left out front suggests that #329 still isn’t in tip-top shape and the full vacate order is still in place. #331 still has a partial vacate order as well.
