Two families who live in adjacent apartments were evacuated while the structure was inspected.
"We came in this morning and we saw the roof caved in," said Kyle Millevoi, whose stepfather owns the dry cleaning business, as they waited for engineers to assess the damage.
"With 10 inches of snow and how heavy the stuff is, you know we're plowing here and stuff like that. It's crazy," said Millevoi.

For many, it was a cleanup day with shoveling and salting happening up and down Asbury Avenue.
Wallace's hardware was practically cleaned out of shovels and ice melt.
"It's a heavy snow. It was pretty wet to start and then it finished up pretty light so the top part is not bad but then you get to the bottom part it's pretty heavy," said Mike Wallace, owner of Wallace's Hardware in Ocean City.
