A crane in midtown has partially collapsed this afternoon, partially collapsing a construction crane.

From the post on the Architect’s Newspaper Blog:

The storm snapped the boom of the crane at the summit of the 95-story, 1,004-foot-tall residential tower, which now dangles precariously over the streets of midtown Manhattan. The scene on the street is still developing, but NY1 reports that the crane could become off-balance causing a further collapse.  Surrounding streets have been closed and emergency crews are on the scene.
