NEW YORK -- Sunday marks nine years since a deadly gas explosion in East Harlem.

Eight people were killed and dozens were injured as the blast destroyed a five-story building on Park Avenue between East 116th Street and 117th in 2014. 

State regulators found that Con Edison failed to properly install a gas pipeline. 

Con Ed reached a $153 million settlement with the state and issued undisclosed payments to at least 90 victims.
