MIAMI (AP) — The seaside condominium that collapsed in Florida this week was a true reflection of Miami’s international mix of South American immigrants, Orthodox Jews, foreign retirees.
Among the 159 people still missing is a Filipino-American who loved to play the piano, Cuban immigrant grandparents who had dreamed of retiring at the beach, and a young Paraguayan who arrived just a week ago to work as a nanny.
Now the building is a symbol of international tragedy, as families around the world hope for news of loved ones in a terrified state of limbo.
