the area over the stairwell.
02:29
We've got some sag.
02:30
It seems to have stabilized in position it's in now.

We've got cool temperatures.

Every now and then we'll get a clip of smoke coming from the floor above, but I think until this building comes down, we won't be able to fully extinguish that collapsed area.

All right,
03:13
let's let those companies you're working with come down and recycle.
03:17
And then we'll get with Jared and check in with him.
