MIAMI, Fla. - A Florida International University professor said the area where the Surfside condo partially collapsed showed signs of sinking during the 1990s.
However, that wouldn’t be the cause for the building to collapse on its own.Last year, Professor Shimon Wdowinski conducted a study showing the Champlain Towers South building was one of the places on the east side of the barrier island where land subsidence was detected between 1993 to 1999.
