Surfside

A federal team continues to focus on construction flaws in the pool deck as it investigates the collapse of the Champlain Towers South condominium in Surfside, Fla. in 2021 which killed 98 people.

The 2021 collapse killed nearly 100 people. Regulations passed since then have raised costs for those living in older buildings. Developers want homeowners to sell so they can put up luxury condos.

Two years ago, 98 people died with the Champlain Towers South condo building partially collapsed. Federal investigators have been looking into the flaws in the building's pool deck.

The accident in Surfside, Fla. killed 98 people two years ago. Now a federal team says the condo's concrete columns and pool deck were constructed improperly and didn't meet building codes.

Investigators with the National Institute of Standards and Technology will begin testing concrete cores and reinforcing steel in a search for answers from the Surfside, Fla., condo collapse.

Residents of the 14-story building were forced to evacuate Thursday evening after officials determined the structure was unsafe and gave orders to leave.

The $1.2 billion settlement is for unit owners and families of those who died in the condo tower. It was finalized one day before the anniversary of the disaster in which 98 people died.

A tentative settlement has been reached in a class-action lawsuit brought by families of victims and survivors of last June's condominium collapse in Surfside, Florida.

Crews continue to find the bodies of those who died during a recent condo collapse. There is another objective for those sifting through the rubble: collecting the property of the victims.

Seventeen days into responding to a condominium collapse in Surfside, Fla., officials cite progress in identifying victims and those still unaccounted for.
