Fox 8 is saying one person is dead.  That's a shame and I'm surprised that number isn't bigger.  Hope it doesn't get bigger.

Re: Hard Rock Hotel in New Orleans just collapsed

At least 3 missing. Most likely buried in the debris

Sad day for those effected by this

when you're tasked to the alchemy of magically changing 0.625 to 0.550 as the limit in thickness to cut cost, you're fk'd as an engineer....
