Federal investigators have revealed that design flaws in the pool deck of the Surfside, Florida, apartment building, which collapsed in June 2021 killing 98 people, put the building at risk of failure before it was even built. The investigation is still ongoing, and the findings of the investigation will be released in the coming months. The National Institute for Standards and Technology is working with the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation to ensure similar tragedies do not occur in the future.

The Hyatt Regency Miami is facing the potential revocation of its liquor license after hosting a Christmas-themed drag show in December that allegedly allowed minors to attend. The complaint filed by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation states that the event was “lewd” and “vulgar” and that minors were admitted, and that the hotel failed to properly enforce its admission policy. The administration of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is now seeking to revoke the hotel’s liquor license, with the consequences of the revocation yet to be determined.
