A North Miami Beach condominium building was being evacuated Monday after it was deemed to be structurally unsafe, city officials said.

The owners of Bayview 60 Homes at 3800 Northeast 168th Street requested the city order an immediate evacuation of residents from the five-story building, the city said in a statement.

Footage showed residents leaving the building with suitcases and a police command center on the street outside the building.

Wait... it’s not a condo in the sense each unit is owned separately. It’s an apartment building, am I wrong?

Well, that’s one way to get around all the roadblocks that prevent mass evictions!

I think it is a condo in the sense each unit is owned separately.

And I’m sure this event is being driven by the Miami area condo failure that happened a few years ago with significant loss of life.

What did DeathSantis know and when did he know it? The blue-checks are already frothing at the mouth on Twitter now.

Listening to the video at the link, one owner for all the units; the residents were renters.

One way to clear a property for re-development.

Might be a condo converion, where someone takes an apartment building and turns it into condos, giving renters an opportunity to by a unit or move out.

Or they just reported it wrong and it’s just an apartment building.

Don't think that kind of heroism is needed in this case.

That’s one way to get apartments for the homeless.

Dunno about DeathSantis, but somebody better get back in there to make sure Andrew Gillum got out okay.

Hard to say unless the building fell.

Living near the ocean. And the foundation is maybe defective from long term water table fluctuations. Tide comes in; Tide goes out. Me thinks many buildings near the ocean may have a life of 50 to 100 years before needing to be replaced by more modern technology/techniques. Then maybe 100 to 150 years before replacement. Just a theory. Also, Florida has got sink holes which make living further inland a problem as well.

It s an apartment building

Property records show Bayview 60 Homes LLC, a Coral Gables-based entity, owns the five-story, 60-unit apartment building. It obtained ownership of the 1-acre property in June 2018 via a quit claim deed from a Panamanian corporation. The building is in the Eastern Shores neighborhood of North Miami Beach.

This article has a lot of good info you will not see in the mainstream media.

That Eastern shores. Extremely high dollar area to live.
Sounds like someone wants to buy the building, fix it up. And the jackup the rent

3 days of hotel. Where on EARTH are these people going to get an affordable place to live in a week. I’d like to know if they were made aware that this could happen.

The original article is very misleading. I bet since the guy has to make all these repairs, he wants to be able to jack up the rents. For all the articles that say people want to rent instead of buy, this is a good reason to rethink that. You are always at someone else’s decisions.
