There was multi-million dollar litigation against the builder and/or the EIFS "false stucco" siding installer. The unit owners won, it was a multi-million dollar verdict. The building was built with sheets of styrofoam covered with a thin fiberglass cloth, then spray on "stucco". Nothing like what a real old-time Italian will call stucco. It's stucco-lite. It leaked.
There was a Record article about the lawsuit in 2005, don't know why it took 5 years, maybe there was an appeal ?
