The crane caught fire on top of 550 10th Ave. near 41st St. at 7:25 a.m. before tumbling down in mere seconds with a 16-ton load of concrete. The crane bashed into a building across the street as it fell, with a plume of thick black smoke visible above the city skyline for miles. (Photo by: Luiz C. Ribeiro)
