As builders work to shore up a NYC skyscraper, the developer is facing a $300 million lawsuit over a separate property. Court records show the lawsuit is tied to allegations of ‘defects and code violations’ at another property in Manhattan that was converted into high-end residences. The lawsuit claims that condos were ‘riddled with defective and unsafe conditions’, were ‘life threatening’ and had roofs and walls that were ‘literally falling apart.’ 0:00 Next steps unclear for NYC high-rise with buckled columns 0:44 CNN's Gloria Pazmino with update on efforts to shore up building 1:39 Project's developer facing $300M suit from condo board at another building over "defects" 2:54 CNN's Samantha Delouya on the challenges of office-to-residential conversions 6:16 Omar Jimenez reports from the scene on the installation of shoring and beams to stabilize the building Watch 24/7 live news with CNN Headlines: https://bit.ly/4eIvlTr #NYC #HighRise #News
