According to local authorities, they want to demolish what is left of the house body as soon as possible.
This is for security reasons, as the storm can pull in over Miami as early as Monday.
- Otherwise we would not have had any control over where the building would fall, says the local fire chief Alan Cominsky.
On Saturday, two more deaths were confirmed and in addition to the 24 dead, 124 people are still reported missing.
No one has yet been found alive in the landslides after the house collapse.
The disaster occurred in the middle of the night last Thursday in Surfside in northern Miami, when about 55 of the house's 136 apartments collapsed in a matter of seconds.
Afterwards, it has emerged that there was damage to the building's construction and that a renovation project for several million would soon begin.
The neighboring house with 156 apartments has also been evacuated and closed due to the security risk, since engineers found problems with both the concrete and the electricity in that house.
