Fears enormous new Denver skyscraper will COLLAPSE after
'contractor removed key pieces of concrete'

A judge has warned that a 415-foot Denver skyscraper could be
in danger of collapsing after a contractor allegedly removed
pieces of concrete from the base amid a bitter feud with the
developer.

Denver District Judge Bruce Jones placed a rare restraining
order on GCon

On August 6, GCon abandoned the project for good and removed
key stabilizing materials from the site in the process,
according to Amacon's lawsuit.

'They were removed not in the dead of night or without notice
or an opportunity for Amacon to observe what was happening,
but in fact in coordination with Amacon's local representatives,'
Ryan Williams, an attorney for GCon, said at the court hearing
attended by Business Den.

Amacon has accused GCon of removing the bracing which stabilized
one of the towers, along with a temporary support system which
was laid beneath the building's concrete slabs, triggering the
level beneath it to start cracking.

   Holy SHIT !!!

   Little contract dispute and someone actually REMOVES
   reinforcing stuff from a huge structure ???

   This is why 3rd-world buildings collapse at the first
   little earth tremor - malicious greedy incompetence.

   Dunno who is in charge of GCon - but they need to be
   in JAIL immediately.

   And, tear down the fuckin' building ! You couldn't pay
   me a million a year to live in such a death-trap.

   This COULD have been solved by some court thing between
   GCon and Amacon. Instead GCon badly weakened the entire
   structure, a serious risk to everyone in and near.
   Could pancake anytime.

   No No NO !
