Located on the Miami-Dade College West, the parking garage was under construction, when the top level fell onto the next, collapsing each section in order.
Two construction workers were killed and ten more injured in the collapse, which trapped several.
Emergency workers have spent the day getting to trapped workers, rescuing two who had been trapped, and continuing to work to free a third.
The remaining worker is apparently stuck in a vehicle, which was buried in the rubble, and rescuers are working to excavate him.
They had to give him an IV, to keep him alive, but any further details on his injuries have not yet been released.
Full rescue could take hours, or possibly even a day or two, due to the instability of the site.
At this time it is not clear what caused the collapse.
