By Peter D'Oench, CBS Miami July 19, 2021 A third Miami-Dade residential building is being evacuated in the wake of the partial collapse of Champlain Towers South in Surfside. Miami Beach has ordered all residents to leave the Devon Apartments by Monday after investigators found structural deficiencies in the 82-year-old building at 69th Street and Indian Creek Drive. The two-story, 30-unit building is two miles from where Champlain Towers South once stood.
