1 week agoCan one of L.A.'s tallest towers survive a huge quake? L.A. County won't tell the public what its report found
Ever since the county of Los Angeles purchased one of downtown L.A.'s tallest skyscrapers, questions have mounted over whether the building could be vulnerable to major damage in the event of a massive earthquake. County officials agreed to study the matter. But officials are now refusing to disclose a preliminary report that could shed light on the seismic safety question of whether the county should embark on costly retrofits to make it more reliable after a big earthquake.
