DarkStar189 Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 @Commissar SFLUFANWow, the digital world we live in. People really are recording all the time. That same website also has security footage of the building falling down which I hadn't seen before. Building looks much bigger in that footage and I can't imagine many people at all could have survived. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 One week after Miami building collapse, search and rescue effort halted due to safety concerns WWW.NBCNEWS.COM Multiple police officers and rescue personnel said that the vacant, still-standing part of the building was shifting and might also flatten. Just declare this to be a "search and recovery" operation so the families can begin planning the memorials for their loved ones. They're all gone.

Guest Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 What the person heard and saw was enough to make them try and warn residents. The video probably doesn’t quite capture what they were experiencing when they decided to record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaysWho? Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Biden is down here and said government will cover costs for the next month. He’s been working with the Governor on recovery. It’s amazing how detached I am emotionally since even sad news doesn’t usually make me sad, but all I had to do was know somebody who knew somebody there and it would have rocked my world.

This is probably good policy, and at the same time thinking from the perspective of being a father myself…you would be in for quite the fight to stop me from being there to work a scene where there is even a glimmer of hope for my child to be alive.

It's like a deadly game of hot potato. One should be checking the financial health of the building before buying a condo. This is one of the things a lawyer looks at before the purchase is finalized. So no, not having a healthy reserve will hurt the value/sale of a unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
