In my office in downtown Manhattan (right across the street from South Street Seaport), the building shook quite violently.

All personnel were evacuated by the emergency stairs and had to wait outside (I guess I waited about 45 minutes or so outside the building once I and my co-workers had made it down the stairs from the 34th floor) until the FDNY inspected the structure's integrity.

Definitely an interesting afternoon in New York!

Glad there wasn't much damage. We were being kind of mean and saying "5.9??? That's not an earthquake." God gets even; we had a little jolt the same evening. Glad everyone is safe. They really can be scary.
