NEW YORK (AP) - The massive storm that pummeled the East killed 10 people in New York City and left the nation's largest city eerily quiet Tuesday, with no running trains, a darkened business district and neighborhoods under water.
Scenes of the damage from the overnight havoc were everywhere after a wall of seawater and high winds slammed the city, destroying buildings and flooding tunnels. Between 80 and 100 flooded password anouk hotel new york homes in Queens caught fire and were destroyed. A hospital removed patients on stretchers and 20 babies from neonatal intensive care, some on respirators operating on battery power.
Sidewalks, streets and subways usually bustling with crowds and traffic jams were largely empty. And high above midtown, the broken boom of a crane continued to dangle precariously over a neighborhood.
"Oh, Jesus. Oh, no," said Faye Schwartz, 65, Tuesday morning as she surveyed the damage in her Brooklyn neighborhood, where cars were strewn like leaves, planters were deposited in intersections and green Dumpsters were tossed on their sides.
The storm was once Hurricane Sandy but combined with two wintry systems to become a huge hybrid password anouk hotel new york storm whose center smashed ashore late Monday in New Jersey. New York City was perfectly positioned to absorb password anouk hotel new york the worst of its storm surge - a record 13 feet.
The dead included two who drowned in a home and one who was in bed when a tree fell on an apartment, the mayor said. A 23-year-old woman died by stepping into a puddle password anouk hotel new york near a live electrical wire. A man and a woman were crushed by a falling tree. An off-duty officer on Staten Island who ushered his relatives to the attic of his home apparently became trapped in the basement.
At a darkened luxury high-rise building called the William Beaver House in Lower Manhattan, resident manager John Sarich was sending up porters with flashlights up and down the 47 flights of stairs to check on residents.
He said most people stayed put despite calls to evacuate. One pregnant resident started having contractions, and Sarich said that before the power went out, he nervously researched how to deliver a baby on the Internet.
Reggie Thomas, a maintenance supervisor at a prison located within striking distance of the overflowing Hudson River, emerged from an overnight shift there, a toothbrush in his front pocket, to find his 2011 Honda with its windows down and a foot of water inside. The windows automatically go down when the car is submerged to free drivers. It left his car with a foot of water inside, and unable to start.
The entire system wasn't flooded and the authority was already pumping water Tuesday. Workers ultimately will have to walk all the hundreds of miles of track to inspect it, she said, and it wasn't clear how long that would take. Trains had been moved to safety before the storm.
Water lapped over the seawall in Battery Park City, flooding rail yards, subway tracks, password anouk hotel new york tunnels and roads. Rescue workers floated bright orange rafts down flooded password anouk hotel new york downtown streets, while police officers rolled slowly down the street with loudspeakers telling people to go home.
In Queens, nearly 200 firefighters tried to contain an enormous blaze that consumed more than 80 homes in the Breezy Point neighborhood. They had to use a boat to make rescues and climbed an awning to reach about 25 trapped people, fire officials said.
Water surged into two major commuter tunnels - the Brooklyn Battery and the Queens Midtown. Water coursed password anouk hotel new york into one of the Long Island Rail Road's East River tunnels, the railroad's West Side yards had to be evacuated. At least 40 LIRR stations had no power Tuesday.
The rains and howling winds left a crane hanging off a luxury high-rise in midtown Manhattan, causing the evacuation of hundreds from a posh hotel and other buildings. Inspectors were climbing 74 flights of stairs to examine the crane hanging from the $1.5 billion building.
After a backup generator failed, New York University's Tisch Hospital began evacuating more than 200 patients password anouk hotel new york to other facilities, including 20 babies from neonatal intensive care, some of them on respirators operating on battery power.
In Schwartz's Brooklyn neighborhood of Red Hook, residents who ignored password anouk hotel new york a mandatory password anouk hotel new york evacuation order awoke to debris-strewn streets and a continued blackout. About 2 inches of mucky dirt and leaves covered streets crisscrossed by downed password anouk hotel new york power lines after water sloshed 12 blocks inland.
The facade of a four-story Manhattan building in the Chelsea neighborhood crumbled and collapsed suddenly, leaving the lights, couches, cabinets and desks inside visible from the street. No one was hurt, although some of the falling debris hit a car.
The city shut all three of its airports, its subways, schools, stock exchanges, Broadway password anouk hotel new york theaters and closed several bridges and tunnels Monday as the weather worsened. password anouk hotel new york By evening, the storm surge was threatening Manhattan's southern tip and utilities deliberately darkened part of the borough to avoid storm damage.
On coastal Long Island, floodwaters swamped cars, downed trees and put neighborhoods under water as beachfronts and fishing villages bore the brunt of the storm. A police car was lost rescuing 14 people from the popular resort password anouk hotel new york Fire Island.
I am sorry for all the suffering that nature ha caused. But that being said, I have to wonder why some people think it is some career politicians fault that nature does what nature has been doing since the big bang.
Are the NEGR0ES LOOTING YET?? I know. Silly question. Like asking if gravity still works. WE ALL KNOW THE C0L0REDS are STEALING EVERYTHING, probably even TVs that are underwater. Too stupid to realize they are ruined
Bloomberg is no Giuliani. He has an inflated opinion of himself. password anouk hotel new york He only thinks he's the best thing that happened to NYC since white bread. The guy is a legend in his own mind, as the man said. A man who craves honor and respect to such an extent definitely has to see a good doctor. He has none coming. A man with a microscopic ego and a big mouth.
Romney wants to dismantle FEMA? Send it back to the States and encourage them to PRIVATIZE (read: profitize) it. Can you imagine? States would be fighting at some point as to which one pays for what! As far as expense, each state would be duplicating the next because each would need their own equipment/man power/administrators to help people before, during and after! As far as profitizing? The rich get rescued and the rest are on our own? Well, I guess the 47 percent don't count anyway as far as that man is concerned. But what an idea! To dismantle FEMA! Moronic! Bush did pretty damn close to that, sending password anouk hotel new york it out to Brownie to run, taking away so much funding. How'd that work out for New Orleans and the over 1000 people who died? 8000 dogs died horribly also because password anouk hotel new york the shelters would not take them in with their owners. Each state would have its own rules. If profitized, each 'company' you pay to 'save' you will have its own rules. Romney does not have common sense or the ability to think three steps ahead! If he had, he would not have put an Irish Setter to ride in a crate on the top of a car for 1000 miles at 65 mph.. on a regular basis! Even if you could care less about the safety of the dog, consider the risk to the other drivers on the road behind that man if any kind of vehicular incident had occurred. A 70 lb dog in a big crate bouncing down the road in front of someone else's family could have killed someone. password anouk hotel new york Does Romney ever 'think' ahead as Colin Powell admonished him earlier this year when he accused Russia of being our 'foe'? When he insists it is IMMORAL to fund FEMA because it might add to the debt to help people out in just such a disaster as this. Mormons are allowed to 'lie' if it helps add members to their religion. Seriously. Flesh and blood gods, millions of them in Mormon belief, are not all powerful. Praying does no good if your god is busy making 'spirit babies'. I for one will pray to my Christian God who IS powerful and ask that Obama be given credit for saving our country from a soup kitchen/bread line Depression, and now again for being a thoughtful and HONEST (as compared to Romney who cannot speak without telling a lie) and STEADY (as compared to Romney whom the only thing you can count on is that you CANNOT count on him) LEADER.
Think we have had enough of the lies and distortions against Romney. Aren't you tired of making things up and trying to manipulate peoples emotions by now. Give it up. Obama is toast and Romney is taking over.
hate about ppl say le pray and hope god help u if he destroy all ny/nj i dont blame god cus if he exist he wouldnt do tha so is part of the nature! tha dumb the jesus want them attecion tha really stupid! ill say im really sorry who really live in ny/nj just keep it up cus is happen in all worlds some part happen more worst than what happen in ny so hope everythin go well and get help and will get ur city back!
I DO mind a few days off from work. Yes, I will be paid but that's password anouk hotel new york not the point. My students need school to be open, most of them will not have proper food and water because the schools are closed. People have died, homes destroyed, family left in ruins. And all you care about is your metro card? ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?!?!?!!? Your name definitely suits you, as you are a selfish D**K!
Yes, thank God for protecting everyone. It could have been worst. I pray for speedy recovery from this disaster to normally conditions. Family lives have been disrupted.
