Site developer sues after accident By Gabriel Margasak, South Florida Sun-Sentinel
The developer of the site of a fatal building collapse filed a lawsuit Friday accusing nearly every contractor of negligence in their work on the luxury townhome project.
In the lawsuit, developer Harbor Communities cites what it calls a series of failures, from the firms that engineered and inspected the shoring of the collapsed building to the concrete company that employed the two workers who were killed in the collapse. The suit is the latest development in the saga that began with the sudden July 22 collapse and has continued with the arrest of the owner of the concrete company on charges of failing to provide workers compensation insurance.
