IDS tragedy update

Posted at 7:20 AM on December 6, 2007 by Bob Collins (0 Comments)

The manager of the IDS building in Minneapolis sent a letter to tenants today, describing yesterday's terrible tragedy that claimed the life of a workman who was removing snow from the Crystal Court.


Prior to expressing its sympathies to the family of the man, the letter provided an unfortunate -- and probably unintentional -- prominence to this point:

It was necessary to close the entire Crystal Court and skyways following the accident. We apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused you.
