This video shows how Champlain Towers South had issues with pooling water from the roof to the garage, but the last picture in the video is what is the most disturbing to me. The last picture was taken a week ago and shows what is left of the garage floor to be completely under water once again. That alone tells me that the property is doomed to flood time and time again and nothing should ever be built on that piece of property.
Jeff, states that it had not rained in some time also, therefore the water is coming from underground. Wow!!!

I wouldn't put much weight in that video. The guy is a Youtube speculator. There is a lot he says that can be picked apart.

The garage floor is below grade. The water table is probably three feet at best in that location, and the water table would rise and fall with the tide and rain, so the garage floor probably was well into the water table. I wouldn't doubt there were pumps to evacuate rain water. When the tons of concrete fell onto the garage floor it no doubt fractured the concrete slab. This would allow the water from below to seep into this area. Maybe this photo was taken at high tide? It may be dry at low tide.
