Ooops: landing gear found in alley behind 51 Park Place:
Police confirmed Friday that the part was found wedged between two buildings in a very narrow alley between the rear of 50 Murray St. and back of 51 Park Place, the site where a mosque and community center has been proposed three blocks from ground zero.
The part bears a “Boeing” stamp, followed by a series of numbers.
NYPD said the landing gear was found after surveyors hired by the property owner inspecting the rear of 51 Park Place called police on Wednesday.
Officials said the soil below the piece of debris could also be searched for remains.
Police officials say the part could be difficult to remove, and may require demolition work that would destroy the two surrounding buildings.
Other debris, including human remains, has been found scattered outside the site, including on a rooftop and in a manhole, in years since.
