Two people were killed, the pilot and a person on the ground, and at least a dozen people were injured, on the ground.
The helicopter damaged a crane, on the way down, and then crashed into a street, catching cars on fire.
Fifty year old Peter Barnes, the pilot, was an expert flyer, with over twelve thousand hours of flight time.
Authorities are investigating the cause of the crash.
It is believed that Barnes may have known he was crashing and aimed for the street, instead of buildings.
