Santo Domingo.- Most of the towers and other constructions in the capital and other cities wouldn?t withstand a strong earthquake, because they were built without regard for the seismic resistant code in effect, which the Public Works Ministry must comply with.
The affirmation is by Dominican Engineers, Architects and Surveyors Guild (CODIA) president Domingo Tavera, in an interview for newspaper Hoy, in the cathedral Primada de America. Now they can say we were warned.
For me I would not live higher than I can jump out of a window.
