One Year Ago Today: I was walking by a building on 2nd Ave. and 7th Street in the #eastvillage #NYC where I smelled a lot of Gas. Saw some building workers running back and forth in a hurry, trying to fix something. I kept walking south and about 15 seconds later a huge explosion happened from that building I passed by. I ran back to try to see if I can help anybody. There were some customers who ran out safely and some workers were stuck inside. Tried to help them. As others were laying on the ground bloody and helpless. I really hope the best for them. Hope no deaths or injury's were from this mess.
