BySeptember 2019.
(CNN)The historic Miami-Dade County Courthouse has been closed after an engineer reported "safety concerns" following the collapse of a condo in nearby Surfside, Florida, officials said Friday.

Courthouse staff has been directed to work from home after the engineer's report -- prompted by the Champlain Towers South condo collapse -- "identified safety concerns with various floors," Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava said in a joint statement with other officials.
The report "recommended floors 16 and above be closed to staff while repairs are swiftly completed," the statement said.

It comes as no surprise to me.

The county is its own little banana republic. Code enforcement is a joke and corruption is rampant...
