FYI Moving car + personal brick wall = car crunched my bricks,

I found it pretty clear. Should the facts prove different , I dont think the grammar is at fault. Or is it?

And if you've ever had your bricks crunched, you know how painful it can be.

I think the main culprit was gravity....

I walked by today at noon. About a story and a half worth of bricks 2 bricks wide were missing from the facade 5 stories up. Don't know if those were removed afterwards through. Took a picture with my phone but you can't see it well.

Boom goes the dynamite...

Welcome to the forum, canuckr. That was the best use of a first post I've ever seen.

The quality of the Google street view photography at this location isn't worth posting.

Yesterday they put scaffolding with a plywood "roof" up over the sidewalk on the Washington Blv. and State Street sides. Although, looking at the damage to that van, I'm not sure the plywood would do much to prevent further damage or injury.
