First Second & The Hurricane

(photo from Keene and Cheshire County historical photos.  This was a hurricane, just not the one that occurred this week.  New Yorkers (unfortunately) do not have as stylish jackets as are pictured here.)

Hey guys!

So, First Second is based in New York City and we just had this hurricane.

We’re all fine, but it looks like the offices are going to be closed for the next few days, because of lack of public transportation in New York City, and also because our offices are on a block where the power is currently out.

Because of this power outage, we don’t currently have access to our work e-mail accounts or contact lists or calenders.  And our work e-mail is currently down because we keep our servers in our office, so if you’re trying to e-mail us, it just won’t go through.  If we owe you material or if you need something from us, we’re sorry about the delay, but next week is probably the best time to get in touch.

If there’s something absolutely urgent, feel free to comment on this post or try getting in touch with us via twitter.
