This is prime beachside real estate. Even if a bunch of residents flee from bad inspections of older buildings, some investment/ hedge fund will buy the land and build new hotels or something
if its a sinkhole issue terrible investment shyt will just fall into the ground again

even if u survived the initial collapse
they said they heard knocking before
no water or food for 3 days, while being packed in like a sardine and inhaling dust :mjcry:

just start bulldozing it.
if you hit something squishy, send out a real quick thought or prayer and keep plowing.

I'll take my chances lol. I would like to think that the engineering and upkeep on the Marriott would be a lot better than this building that collapsed. I could think of worse places to die as well :shrug:

Please reconsider that breh. Large expensive beachside hotels and residences don't care about your safety, they only care about your money. The view won't be worth the very real possibility of being crushed to death or painfully suffocating slowly to death for hours should the building collapse. And all those buildings are in danger. They've known this for decades. Please don't take unnecessary risks with your health. Your life is too precious.

Who is going to have the political will to tell a tourist area in Florida y’all gotta pull out and let nature have this back?

Not a single person. And you don't even have to go that far. It just may not be a good idea, to have buildings that tall that hold that many people, in an area where the air coming from the sea alone is doing damage to your structure everyday, and then not have the financial will to spend the 10s of millions of dollars it takes to keep them up to code and safe. A lot of this shyt should have been said before it was a tourist spot.

Buildings “wobble” all the time, ALL the time, that’s why engineers and structural planners design buildings to be able to withstand slight wind variations, acts of nature etc etc. The problem is with the type of land that the building is constructed on. Florida has a lot of marsh land which after time becomes less stable, more subject to erosion, not to mention floods, that dry land turns into clusters of swamp land. Like building a 10 story building on marshmallow as a foundation. As far as that building swaying, like I said buildings are designed to move however with Florida, the salt water, sand etc that’s circulating in the air weakens the steel, concrete, support beams- took an earth science class in the 9th grade and I remember the teacher showing us the affect that water can have on structures that are constantly exposed to it. Also if you think about it- the ocean is right under those buildings, they said the building was slowly wasting away since the 90s.





If people knew how much bridges sway, they sound never drive other them. This shyt looks like it was built out of rubber





There’s articles out there that said tenants wrote their concerns to the building owners, filed lawsuits - nothing was acted on. I said it before, people underestimate how vast and dangerous the ocean is.


Even worse, the era of climate change gonna change all of that

Nah they need to drag all the developers and owners of the place and whip they ass for literally putting their families inside a giant death trap...:mjlol:

That makes too much sense, but you know America....kissing the rich people's asses and never take accountability for their actions.

Florida Keys will be underwater in 10 -15 years. They have no money to fight the rising water and people will soon start abandoning homes because no insurance companies will cover the houses. The roads are irreparable. It’s a wrap for the keys.
Beachfront property for the foreseeable future
:ufdup:

I keep telling my pops that. By 2040-2045, Florida will disappear.
