My wife and I just heard a huge crash in The Port area near Central. Louder than anything I've heard from the area. It set off a car alarm after. Any idea what that noise was?

I heard it too. Big boom too loud to be a firework.

That was my initial thought. But firework would certainly be the most parsimonious exclamation - maybe we both live close to the event?

Yo dawg it was obviously swamp gas

I can't tell if you're joking - is this for real?

I think they’re making a joke about it being a UFO

Did a transformer blow up? Just a random guess.

That did happen a few days ago... Could be.

Heard it around 200 Broadway — it was crazy loud, no idea what it could’ve been though

That was the vicinity it sounded like it was coming from to me - maybe in Greene Rose Park?

Edit: We heard it from Main St.

I’m near Lord Hobo and heard it in my apartment, also heard the car alarm after. I hope we find out what it was soon

I was about half a block from where it happened -- intersection of Bishop Allen and Main St. There was a loud bang and then a MUCH larger boom with a flash of light, and smoke. My dog was freaking out so I didn't go out to check on it, but there wasn't anything obvious left in the street where it happened.

Sounds like a firework that went off wrong. Which was probably everyone's guess, anyway. Do you know if any emergency personnel arrived?

penisrumortrue t1_j2li06f wrote on January 2, 2023 at 5:09 AM

Nope. I saw a firetruck roll down Main St reeeeeeaaal slow like 10 mins later with lights on but no sirens, but it didn't stop.

Any update?

I think it had to do with the flyover earlier today for the winter classic. that shit was loud and they flew those f15s so god damn low. a warning would of been nice.

Nah that was today… this post is from yesterday. Sounded more like an explosion near central

Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake.

It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of.

Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything.

Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.
