Surveying the Damage in Lower Manhattan
-
Racked boss Lockhart Steele surveyed the damage at the South Street Seaport. He writes, "The legendary first J. Crew location took on a good bit of water. Mannequin carnage inside."
-
More from Lock: "The Fulton Mall. All of this was under at least five feet of water at peak of storm."
-
Also from Lock: "Smashed front window at Ann Taylor store. Wasn't much looting, though, as tons of merch remains strewn inside. A total mess."
