In Passing

“Can’t anybody here run this project?”


From the New York Post:

Two sets of confidential blueprints for the planned Freedom Tower, which is set to rise at Ground Zero, were carelessly dumped in a city garbage can on the corner of West Houston and Sullivan streets...
...where they were found by a homeless man.

It’s a security breach...
[The documents] contain details such as plans for each floor, the thickness of the concrete-core wall and the location of air ducts, elevators, electrical systems and support columns.
...although I’m inclined to agree with the commenters at Althouse...
The guys that did [the 9/11] attacks on the WTC didn't need no stinking plans.
Even so, somebody’s carelessness has gifted New York with a two-fer: Another embarrassment for the Port Authority, and another opportunity for the press to hammer it.
