The water my boat floats in flooded a facility for Con Ed in lower Manhattan. (Now boating related) There was the following massive explosion. Network connectivity through 60 Hudson is possibly entirely down. Anyone having internet issues may see this going on for quite a while. 60 Hudson is a major hub in NYC.
