Dear Mr. Kalimian

At your request, on Monday, September 17, 2001, we visited the above location for a structural inspection of the building. The purpose of our investigation was to determine, by visual means, the structural soundness and stability of the building.

The building is constructed of reinforced concrete with masonry and glass exterior non-bearing walls. The interior wall are constructed of sheet rock with the exception of stairwell walls which are constructed of masonry.

We examined the exterior of the building on all facades from both the street and roof levels. We examined the interior of the building on various levels. We also examined the basement of the building.

There were no signs of cracking in any of the masonry walls. There were no signs of craking in any of the concrete examined. There were no indications that the building had shifted or had been twisted. There did not appear to be damage to any of the glass in the building. We wre informed that none of the windows in the building had required replacement.

In our opinion, based upon the visual examination of the building, there are no indications of any structural instability in the building. It appears that the building incurred no structural damage during the events of September 11, 2001.

Should there be any further questions concerning this matter please contact us.

Very truly TING PLLC

Mendelson P-ly.
