WEST PALM BEACH — The deadly condominium collapse in Surfside hung over a series of panel discussions in West Palm Beach on Tuesday as engineers and building safety officials discussed what can be done to make structures in Florida safer.
A moment of silence was observed before the first discussion in remembrance of the 98 people who were killed on June 24 during the collapse of Champlain Towers South, a 12-story condo complex located about 14 miles northeast of Miami.
