Millennium Partners seeks to build a Los Angeles skyscraper on a faultline, also San Francisco tower worsening "in a dramatic fashion"

These big name developers shield themselves from liability by using their name as a marketing or project management banner, but the builder is a numbered company (frequently owned by them) that vanishes once the construction is complete. I’ve seen some of the best names in the construction industry devolve into this status. The new up-and-comers in my city are often building crappy billion dollar projects that I won’t associate myself with because the stink rubs off on all the consultants, trades and contractors.
