North Miami Beach building evacuated after being deemed unsafe

A North Miami Beach condo complex has been evacuated after officials deemed it unsafe in the wake of the fatal Surfside building collapse.

Authorities say that the Crestview Towers Condominium, which was built in 1972, was viewed as “structurally and electrically unsafe” in its January recertification report.

The City of North Miami Beach says that the report was brought to the attention of its Beach Building and Zoning Department by the complex’s management on Friday.
