Description

CBS Miami November 23, 2021 The historic Dade County Courthouse will reopen in December, after being shut down for five months. It was shut down to undergo an engineering inspection in the wake of the Surfside condo collapse in June. The 27-story Dade County Courthouse, built in 1928, never completed its required 40-year safety recertification until recent months. It was closed in July amid widespread safety concerns about older buildings after the June 24 collapse of the Champlain Towers South condo, which killed 98 people.
