This is an interesting link. Thanks Diana, if you are still with us.
If there is such a thing as too much modern architecture, this link may be that too. A week or so ago, I found a really nice building there, but cannot find it again.

If you are curious about how the Surfside Condo failed, this is a short and clear explanation:-



It's a reminder of how all the bits of a structure have to do their job: the failure of one part puts un-designed-for stress on other parts, leading to progressive collapse.
