FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — This month’s epic rainstorm had one more unexpected victim in Fort Lauderdale: The eight-story concrete behemoth that is City Hall.
Not even the commission has been allowed back inside.
A gray bunker of a building that was birthed in the 1960s, City Hall has been closed since the storm hit on April 12. The building sustained such extensive damage, it will likely never reopen, city officials say. That means Fort Lauderdale City Hall is on the hunt for temporary offices until the building can be demolished and a new home built.
