I live 2 doors from this. The explosion shook the building. I thought it was a transformer exploded.
The explosion sound settles and then continues again but not as loud as that first boom.
Sounded like they finally got us I was like "This is the big one, Elizabeth! I'm coming to join you, honey!"
FD left, Con Ed working on it. In the meantime several homes on the block have no power at the moment.
