A New York City building that had been evacuated due to fears of collapse has been deemed "stable" by officials, allowing for the lifting of more evacuation orders. The 39-story building in Manhattan's Upper West Side had been a source of concern after a recent roof collapse, prompting the evacuation of hundreds of residents. Despite initial fears that the building's structural integrity was compromised, engineers have assessed the damage and determined that it is safe for people to return. While some residents remain in temporary housing, many are expected to be allowed back into their homes in the coming days.
