NYC Freedom Tower plans found in trash

[Midnight Mike]

The man brought the Freedom Tower plans to the New York Post, which says the 150-page schematic is marked: "Secure Document — Confidential."

The documents are dated Oct. 5, 2007. They contain plans for each floor, the thickness of the concrete-core wall, and the location of air ducts, elevators, electrical systems and support columns.

The agency that owns the World Trade Center site, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, calls it a serious security lapse.

Spokeswoman Candace McAdams says mishandling the blueprints would be "cause for serious disciplinary action."

This is a non issue and being played up by the Post. The records and plans of any building in the city can be accessed by a visit to the Public Records office. A request my have to be submitted but any publicly inspected building in NYC can have its records and plans accessed by anyone, it’s called a free society folks.

Yep. This is about as serious as a Boston Sox Jersey buried in Yankee stadium.

Its not news. Its not crucial.

Its a nice way to get your mind off the serious issues we face.
