Landmark status.

That is not fair. If you only do quality jobs then you are missing out
on all of the opportunities for the guys that are not literate enough to
understand that with a 2-part epoxy there is a reason one bucket says A
and one bucket says B. There was that big job down near the Tweed
Courthouse a few years back that was triggered when a granite dentil
held by bucket B at something like floor 59 fell on the sidewalk. As I
remember the word was that 6 guys erecting the scaffold died on that
project by walking off unrailed ends.
The fallen dentil sounds like the Manhattan Municipal Building, which as I
remember is on the order of 24 stories, not 59. I never heard anything about
anybody walking off the pipe, and think it would've been very well
publicized if it'd happened. Seems to me there was some sort of recombined
assembly of contractors from the Evil Thomasons on that job
An architect friend of mine, then with DGS, was the guy who found the dentil
on the ground, out in a traffic island or someplace like that, surrounded by
access roads leading to the Brooklyn Bridge. Our mutual friend Bronson
Binger was the City's guy who ordered the approaches to the bridge closed
until the building was netted and/or piped.
