Wow, I feel so damn lucky right now.

They have the street blocked off and a crew is lifting parts of the scaffolding off of the road right now. There are people in the Common watching the whole thing. I couldn't see the spot from where I was, but there seems to be a vantage point from the park where everyone can see a lot. It's too big of an area to block from view. There are a lot of students hanging out here, too looking around.
Fire trucks and cops cars/bikes up the wazoo.
Everyone on the subway was talking about it. Lots of people getting cellphone calls when we went over the Charles River hearing the news for the first time.
A couple of people thought we were being attacked...
The owner of the building is in for a world of hurt.
Crazy stuff...
