During a press conference this afternoon, Mayor Vince Gray said that the District of Columbia was “not aware of any significant public safety issues” as a result of today’s earthquake. So, no matter how many breathless media reports are circulating out there claiming that the Washington Monument might be tilting, just know, it’s not.

The video above, however, appears to be fairly indicative of the kind of damage which resulted from the quake. Shot in Tysons Corner, it shows bricks and other building materials which were shaken loose by the quake, causing some serious property damage. We’ve been seeing photographs from alleys and roads in the District featuring the same kind of damage, as one might expect in a city where many of the buildings are very old.

As expected, the federal Office of Personnel Management has gone ahead and called for the early dismissal of employees, as has the District. Both Pepco and Washington Gas are apparently also not experiencing disruptions to electric and gas service inside the District. Gray also said a decision would be made on school closings later this evening.
