If we know the building was not up to code, we already learned those lessons. Didn’t we? The only lesson left is to, maybe, enforce the code?

- bruce511 3y agoThat's one interpretation. The other is that the building predated to code, and it was impossible, or too expensive, to retrofit the building. Alas I do not live in Christchurch so I can't comment to this specific case. However, in general new buildings are subject to new codes, where old buildings may not be.
