Could be worse.
The People living there are only Renting. They don't own the Apartments like the people in San Francisco who own Apartments in the sinking Millennium Tower. Pull up the Moving Trucks and see ya', wouldn't want to be ya'...

I’ve seen reports of the dang thing listing, some reports of it sinking. I feel for folks who have no choice but to move back in if their unit has been deemed safe. I surely wouldn’t want to do it.

I’m also wondering if the problem isn’t so much the building as the ground it was built upon. I saw one story that stated the ground is “reclaimed land”.

Evac to be completed within 24 hours. Residents may be out for 10 days. May.
All residents of the Opal tower at Sydney Olympic Park are being put up in hotels as the building owners go through more checks - “this may take 10 days” https://t.co/jqix8O4Fcf
