2-Story Building in Brooklyn Evacuated After Report of Unstable Facade

A two-story building in Brooklyn was evacuated Tuesday after authorities got a call about an unstable facade, officials say. 

The FDNY said it first got a call about the issue at the building on Fourth Avenue shortly after 11 a.m. 

It's not clear if it's a private dwelling or a commercial establishment. The Department of Buildings said tenants were allowed to return around 2:30 p.m. after the structure was determined to be safe. 

The investigation is ongoing.
