@naryouk @crescent777 @sandiego_citizen The Merian is a fire rated building with advanced life safety functions built in. When a fire is occurring, alarms will go off on the affected floor the one above and below. You only need to evacuate down 5 floors. This went into the trash chute and probably caused smoke at the top of the building which is probably who evacuated.
Are people allowed to go up?
And still can’t eve though this app is reporting it has been resolved, they won’t let me
I came home on my e-bike and pulled into the parking garage and couldn’t breathe it was so Smokey and alarms ringing so I went in lobby as they were evacuating people and they wouldn’t let me even go up the stairs to get my cats!!
