Nearly all of the buildings where debris contaminated with asbestos was found after the July 19 steam pipe explosion in the Flatiron District have been reopened as of Monday, the Office of Emergency Management said.
One out of the 15 contaminated buildings, 141 Fifth Ave./145 Fifth Ave., still requires cleaning before it can fully reopen.
A total of 45 buildings were checked for debris after the explosion on Fifth Avenue between 20th and 21st streets.
If anyone returning to a building near the explosion site sees debris, they should call 212-358-4565 or go to the reception center at The Clinton School (10 E. 15th St.), which will remain open until 5 p.m. Monday, OEM said.
3 West 20th Street is cleared for re-occupancy.
