TL;DR Summary

An apartment tenant in Davenport, Iowa, has filed a lawsuit alleging that the building collapse that killed three people could have been prevented if the current and former owners had not ignored warnings about the "imminent danger" residents faced. The lawsuit names the city, the building's owners, and the engineering and contracting companies that worked on it as defendants. The building's owners had been warned about structural issues before the incident, but they allegedly did not take action until it was too late. The lawsuit seeks answers about the collapse and holds the defendants accountable for their negligence.
