Overview
- The collapse occurred Tuesday morning in the passageway between Park Street and Downtown Crossing, and no injuries were reported.
- The MBTA attributed the failure to water intrusion following this week's storms, calling it water damage.
- Structural inspectors and crews removed loose material and debris, and the agency’s director of engineering deemed the area safe.
- The concourse remained open throughout the response, with service continuing through the corridor.
- An eyewitness shared images from the scene shortly after 7:30 a.m., and the incident has renewed concern after a larger panel fell at Harvard station earlier this year.
