It was relatively small -- from the damage and the debris trail I'd say EF2, maybe EF3. It was nowhere near the monster that took out Chapman, which I'd put at a solid EF4.
And well, yeah, most of the buildings on campus are dense enough to survive something like this -- Weber had the arena which left it vulnerable, and the poor Soil Erosion Lab didn't stand a chance.
But yeah, this has not been a good seven months to be a tree in Manhattan.
