The condo tower was built in 1981 according to reports currently circulating. One would suspect that conventional design and construction teams had been at work on this project.

One might also suspect that defects in the structure must have become apparent to observers well in advance of this collapse. Residents, management, city inspectors/bureaucrats must have been aware that something was amiss.

The stink of corruption is nothing new in Miami. Watch them find a fall guy and hush all of this up as quickly as possible.

Janet Reno was in charge of prosecuting felonies in Miami-Dade at the time this shoddy building was constructed. She became AG after two corrupt females had been turned down by the Senate for AG.

Hard to believe that Shrill could have found anyone more rotten than the BUTCHer of Waco.

Janet Reno

Thanks for the reminder. Nearly forgot.

What else do we know about this corrupt neighborhood?

Here's a defunct structure that DIDN'T fall into it's own footprint BTW.

I'm on my phone. There's an article at stateofthenation.co saying it looks a lot like the controlled demolition of 911. Short clip. I think I see flashes go off in the building

Well shut my danged mouth.

Looking at the latest photographic overlays, it appears that this condo building did just that.

It pretty much fell straight down into its own footprint.

This building is supposed to be located in an overwhelming jewish area, FWIW.
