Possible Gas leaks in the city...
They just broke in to say dozens of 911 calls are being made saying that there is a very strong Gas smell outside.
Around Battery Park, Madison Square Garden, 5th Ave, Chelsea, etc.
They don't have more info yet.

The proper authorities are still investigating and it has not been officially called a "gas leak". Its still being called a suspicious odor by the authorities.

They are afraid of causing mass hysteria. Oy, if people should get out of the buildings they need some notice.

Re: Possible Gas leaks in the city...
NEW YORK -- People all over a large part of New York City are smelling a gas, and it's not clear where it's coming from.
Numerous people have called 911 concerned about the odor. Con Edison, the Fire Department and the U.S. Coast Guard are investigating.
PATH service has been suspended into the 33rd Street station. Service is still going into the World Trade Center station.
Macy's department store has been evacuated, according to reports.
There also are unconfirmed reports of a similar smell across the river in New Jersey.
People between Midtown and Battery Park are reported to be smelling it. At NBC headquarters in Rockefeller Plaza, the odor is very strong. One person who works on the sixth floor at 30 Rockefeller Center says it's so strong people are leaving the building.
At one major office building at 37th and 7th, employees have been told that Con Edison is looking into a smell, and they should remain inside until they hear otherwise.
Mayor Bloomberg is expected to be asked about it at a 9:30 briefing with the media

It's from Downtown to Midtown. Some reports are suggesting that the odor has originated in New Jersey.
Sorry, I didn't realize that this was already posted.
I'm on the 46th floor, in the Rock Centre area and the odor is up here.

I am in Chelsea and swore I could smell gas on my walk to the office from the subway. I completely dismissed it though - concerned citizen that I am.

They just made an announcement that the order has permeated the building.
I'm sending my assistant home. She's pregnant - even if this is safe for us - it's not safe for her to be breathing in this stuff.

It's awful! I went outside from about 9-9:30 and it got a bit better, but it's not good.

The smell has ended in battery park because it moved to Jersey. Macy's is still evacuated.
