According to jeffostroff on the Tube of Eww...there were several code violations and stop-work orders on the construction/demolition site next to this building. Including one where work was ordered halted and it was not.
I'm thinking they ran into unstable ground, maybe a clay pool or former landfill or closed tunnel/sewer main...the excavation site appeared 3 stories deep...and something shifted and took that whole row structure out. Incredibly it detached neatly from the one it was built against, yes, with a common wall.
