Despite the claim of well built there were NO sprinklers (not required when built in 1983).
Is it time to bring building codes up to date? I know it will cost something, but these are luxury apartments and so I presume could be easily afforded. Link http://https://www.apnews.com/5a270046c5d6487c892b85fd761b91fd/1-killed-in-fire-at-Trump-Tower-in-New-York |

Trump lobbied against laws requiring sprinklers. And he tweeted about the building being well constructed...but nothing about the fatality. Classy.
