NYC 9/11 Public Portal Document

■ N5WYORK STATE SENATE ALBANY, NEW YORK 12247

Senator Martin Connor Minority Leader 25th District

DISTRICT OFFICE 250 Broadway. Suite 2011 New York, New York 10007-2356 1212) 298-5565 FAX 12121 298-5574 May 31, 2002

Commissioner Christopher Ward NYC Department of Environmental Protection 59-17 Junction Boulevard Corona, NY 11368

Dear Commissil ard:

lam writing regarding the severe impacts the September 11th terrorist attacks had on 125 Cedar Street (AKA 120 Liberty Street) in Manhattan in an effort to ensure that this building is properly and professionally cleaned and repaired so it may be quickly re-occupied.

As you know, 125 Cedar Street is a 12-story building with approximately 20 loft-sized rent stabilized residential units located directly across the street from Ground Zero. When the Towers collapsed, this building suffered greatly; the windows on Liberty Street blew in and the windows on Cedar Street blew out, more than four feet of debris from the collapse filled the units, dust was everywhere, water pipes broke, kitchen appliances were badly damaged, clothing and furniture were destroyed, and debris filled the air shaft between 125 Cedar Street and Liberty Street. In addition, the tenants, who are artists, lost supplies and many years of work. They remain evacuated.

It is imperative that the exterior and interior areas of this building be professionally and properly cleaned before the New York City Department of Transportation begins its total capital reconstruction of Greenwich Street south of Liberty and Cedar Streets between Greenwich Street and Trinity Place.

It is now my understanding that New York City Department of Environmental Protection will begin cleaning the exterior of 125 Cedar Street, including the air shaft, on June 3rd. Because of the extent of the damage this building sustained, I hope that it will be the first of the buildings to be cleaned. However, it is imperative that the scope of work for interior cleaning be developed quickly.
