A state legislator is seeking to evict Miami-Dade County from the Coconut Grove Playhouse property and hand control of the project instead to a tiny town of 6,000 residents in the middle of Biscayne Bay.

City of Miami officials said Friday that the exterior walls of the playhouse could collapse because of a construction mistake that caused a partial collapse inside the building earlier this week.
