A three-story Brooklyn building housing a gym collapsed Wednesday afternoon, leaving one person injured and a massive pile of rubble and debris strewn on the street. The building at the corner of Court and Union streets in Carroll Gardens came crashing down at around 4:30 p.m. in the tony neighborhood. Officials said that the building – home to Body Elite Gym for the past 36 years – was vacant at the time of the collapse. But the man who was injured was inside the building’s second-floor and was able to escape with minor injuries, FDNY officials said. He was taken to NewYork-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital. The #NYPD was seen using #K9 units to search the wreckage in the immediate aftermath of the collapse.
