As predicted, the new rules (paying, and no single visitors) did not stop today’s tragedy from happening. It may be closed to visitors for good. People will have to use one of the other countless ways to do something tragic.

“We are heartbroken by this tragedy and our thoughts are with the family of the young person who lost his life,” Hudson Yards spokeswoman Kimberly Winston said in a statement.
“We are conducting a full investigation. The Vessel is currently closed.”
That may be the case forever, according to the Daily Beast, which spoke to the structure’s billionaire developer Stephen Ross.
He told the outlet that he is weighing whether to shut down the Vessel for good following the latest suicide there — the fourth in two years.
“We thought we did everything that would really prevent this,” Ross said. “It’s hard to really fathom how something like that could happen.”
Sources said the boy, who is from New Jersey, was with his parents, sister and grandmother at the time — and said nothing before the fatal leap.
