The Bellevue Crane Accident

6 years ago on that day, I was living in the very apartment that a crane fell on and took the life of 31 year-old Microsoft Attorney, Matthew Ammon. I stayed in this top floor apartment courtesy of AT&T Wireless as part of a relocation package when I moved here from Columbus, OH. During the six months I lived there, I never forgot about that damn crane that stood high in the abandoned lot just across the street but never imagined it would come down like this.
