Partial Collapse of 12-story Condo Building in Miami

[Gman]

There was a family right next to the collapse that got out... They said it seemed like the first floor (where they got out) had sunk 3-4 feet. Not counting on the accuracy of that too much (fish stories anyone?) But in any event, first hand accounts are pointing to geologic. Apparently climate change space surveys studying ground swell also had noted unusual settling in that specific spot, but failed to actually inform anyone since they were not studying buildings....

I agree with that assessment based on the photos I've seen. In one areal shot you can see the pool decking is several feet higher than the surrounding area including where the collapsed building is located. The Colorado woman who was on the phone with her husband prior to and at the time of the collapse had mentioned a hole opening up near the pool.

ETA: I should have fully caught up on this thread before posting.
