“The Department of Buildings has deemed 88 Greenwich unsafe and has posted signs to this effect on the building….There is no electricity … no fire safety systems, no heat, no water … no functioning toilets,” a memo from the building’s management says, according to one tipster who wrote to Curbed. “Based on current conditions, it does not appear that the building will be habitable in the short term, meaning a few weeks to more than a month.”

A fuel tank at the 452-unit condominium building, at Rector Street, apparently flooded with saltwater during the storm, leaving a mixture of saltwater and oil coating the lobby. [Curbed] –Guelda Voien
