The Sinking of Buildings in Miami Beach: What Is the County Administration Doing, and What Comes Next?
The recent study conducted by the University of Miami, led by Farzaneh Aziz Zanjani and Falk Amelung, has revealed a concerning phenomenon: dozens of luxury buildings and hotels on the barrier islands of Miami-Dade County show clear signs of progressive sinking. Measurements taken between 2016 and 2023 using InSAR (Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar) technology document vertical displacements ranging from 2 to 8 cm, mostly linked to new construction activities. These findings raise alarm due to the deterioration of infrastructure and the significant economic and public safety implications.

Despite the evidence, the construction of luxury high-rises continues with limited restrictions, sparking questions about the current and future actions of the Miami-Dade County administration.
