They were AirBNB’d out to Argentinians for vaccine tourism use.
It did seem to pancake in an oddly perfect way. I'm waiting for them to tell us it was caused by a spark in the center fuel tank.
There are two more EXACTLY identical buildings just to the north of the collapsed one, which share the same name. They should be inspected IMMEDIATELY. If I lived in one of them, I’d be doing that yesterday and moving out quicklike, if I saw and cracks or repaired cracks and is start by looking at every support column beginning in the lower parking garage.
Why is FEMA there? Isn’t this mainly a local issue?
I might even pay an engineer to come look at my own expense.
Certainly these other two buildings will shed light on the collapsed one.
It’s representative of the seacoast of downtown Miami in Miami-Dade County—just that Miami is newer and taller. Miami Beach and nextdoor Surfside is generally much older.
It’s not so cramped going north one County in Broward County, but they vote as a Commie “bloc”.
Or it looked like Oklahoma bombing, or 9/11 WTC (and some said it looked like building 7 WTC collapse).
Also recall, WTC first attack was bombs set off in the parking garage.
In general the MSM seems to be in some sort of cover up mode?
🤔
Continued prayers for the victims and their families.
What a horrible tragedy.

I wondered that as well and hopefully it will get reposted with a few more seconds upfront.
Regardless, here is what this remarkable bit of video does reveal... the center section collapsed straight down first with perhaps the north side following slightly after the south side dropped. It wasn’t until the entire center section was down, the building section that was closer to the water came straight down and it also perhaps had the south side dropping a slight bit before the north side. The only part left standing is the section closest to the street. The fact that these two sections came down separately makes me think that they weren’t actually joined ‘structurally’ other than the cosmetic stuff that allowed a person to go from one section to the other. My guess is that they were built at different times (or at least in different phases) but that’s just a guess…..
I might be missing something but I don’t see this as anything other than a foundation failure and that could be one or a combination of all the things that have been mentioned... lack of deep pilings, poor quality concrete (perhaps initially poor or degraded by salt over the years), insufficient foundation for the mass of the building, sink hole, other types of voids below the foundation likely relating to some type of water drainage etc. There were reports of complaints of vibration in this whole area (due to construction of another building some distance away) that go back a year….that shouldn’t bring a building down but it might have acted as a catalyst and contributing factor that accelerated some other deficiency that already existed. The fact that both sections basically came straight down (with perhaps the south side leading slightly for both of them) says that whatever brought it down (or combination of factors) was a common issue across the entire foundation footprint….and that would give me serious pause for any nearby structures. Something always go first and in this case, it seemed like what went first was on the south side and that shifted the dynamics and loading of the remaining structure so that the rest almost instantly followed. However, for a common issue there might have been a different part of the structure that went first on a different day or even on the building beside it.
I know one thing... there isn’t anything valuable enough to entice me to go back into the remaining section even for 1 minute.
The WTC was largely a steel frame structure.
The WTC Bombing #1 was with charges placed near the elevator in basement. It almost worked from some reports, but failed to bring the building down.’
I doubt this was a bombing, but I guess it is possible.
I think the answer will be found in the fractured concrete left in the debris.
FEMA has resources that are readily available that may help.
I am not surprised they are there.
If you are paying millions for a condo, maybe so. People buying the cookie cutter condos for ~$700K not so much.
I get your analogy. I agree that at least the Fed Gov and some State level POLs lie to us 24/7 supporting a foreign agenda.
At this point, I don't believe this was a bombing. but the total leveling of the entire wing of the building is suspect.
It is like what is left when you burn off a field of wheat stubble after harvest. Was it accidental or a planned burn? The degree of un-burned ground is the best indicator.
So scary. I imagine everyone in those identical buildings are scrambling to get out, quick.
159 now reported “unaccounted” for. Included in missing sister of president of Paraguay, group from Israel.
It's understandable that the public face is one of hope. BUT, this was a horrific event.
Correction sister of wife of President of Paraguay.
Cause we all KNOW it *COULDN’T* be terrorism, right????
Yep, that's what ocean view condos are, or higher.
Thank you on the update of statistics.
Makes me feel very sick thinking about it.
But I am also struggling with things closer to home that deeply trouble me. Last week I learned the my only grandson (14) was given the first dose of Phize Covid shot. My only daughter has had both of them. I was unaware until it was done.
Not good feeling.
It is...Moscow. Shows the similarity of the high rises there with here.
