Luxury Docklands Apartments Branded 'death Traps' As Residents Move Out

摘要

Residents of a luxury apartment block in London's Docklands have had to leave their homes after discovering that their building was a potential death trap, because of the absence of adequate fire protection. The situation first came to light in an article the London Evening Standard by investigative reporter Andrew Gilligan. He reported on a catalogue of inadequate or non-existent built-in fire protection alongside other deficiencies, such as inadequately supported balconies and leaking roofs.
