The first one was a wall collapse down the length of the entire block on 87 Avenue. That was earlier in the afternoon.
The second one was on 126 Street between 107 Avenue and 109 Avenue. The units were initially requested just to check the stability of the building. When 126 arrived on scene, they asked for the extra assistance. Major damage to the house. Roof into the attic, cracks on the exposure 4 side of the house, interior stairway damage. That's about all I got before I went off duty.

The wall ran the length of the block. The  part that came down was in on yard with bowing on either side.
