Yikes: A tractor-trailer crashed into a building at Kent and N. 11th Street in Brooklyn this morning. No injuries have been reported, but the building has been evacuated (there are apartments on the second floor) and the Buildings Department has been called.
And while some are calling the location Greenpoint, we're using the Williamsburg-starts- at-N.14th-Street route.
