9 Year Old High Rise Apartment To Be Torn Down
No less than ten people have sent me a link to this incredible story, High-rise unsafe; hundreds uprooted:
The 25-floor McGuire Apartment building at Second Avenue and Wall Street — built in 2001 — has to come down because it soon will be declared unsafe for occupancy by the city.
The building’s occupants were told in last-minute meetings on Saturday that the building will have to be torn down — and the residents need to be out as soon as possible.
KOMO News has learned that the issue involves cables, concrete and corrosion that have become so costly to repair that it would be cheaper for the owner to tear down the building than to fix it.
Sorry, I didn’t get it posted sooner, I’m in Denver for a real estate conference.
