Most Buildings In WTC Area Are Structurally Sound

"Building inspectors and engineering consultants who have begun a building-by-building inspection through the area said yesterday that the results so far have been encouraging. Although they found widespread damage that could keep some buildings unoccupied for months, none of the buildings looked at so far, they said, including 14 city-owned buildings, were in danger of falling down or so badly damaged that they could not be repaired. Many of the buildings they inspected will need extensive cleanup or repairs to exteriors and heating and ventilation systems fouled with ash and soot, the inspectors said."
