Add beach erosion adding to the deterioration of some beach side cities like Daytona.
Not an expert on the rusting rebar in concrete on the beach, but found it interesting to learn - back when we were looking to buy down yonder - that essentially all of the balconies on all of the high rises in the regions on either side of Lauderdale-by-the-Sea had already been replaced in the recent past for that reason.

Did a fair bit of "looking into" that collapsed high rise. The problems that led to it had been known of for quite a long while. Ugly stuff.

The (leaking) pool above the underground parking in our condo on Pompano Beach was in the process of being replaced when we left. The processes and time involved for getting that work started was right concerning.
