Nearly a year after the corner of a Morris Heights building came crashing to the ground, the Department of Buildings has released the findings of its investigation. They say the partial collapse was caused by the "reckless action" of the engineer and contractor removing a support beam without reinforcing it.
Assembly Member Yudelka Tapia unpacks the findings.
Also, Michael Blake, a former Assembly member from the Bronx, discusses the launch of his campaign for New York City mayor.
