An approximately 40,000-sq-ft corporate hangar under construction at New Jersey’s Morristown Municipal Airport collapsed Friday morning, injuring two workers, one seriously. According to an airport spokeswoman, the collapse of the new structure, which was being built on the site of a previously demolished hangar near Taxiway Lima, prompted the airport to shut off power to some areas as a precautionary measure because a steel girder was leaning against electrical equipment.
