On April 3, 2020, OSHA found that the structural engineer had 'failed to adequately design, review or approve steel bolt connections affecting the structural integrity of the building'. Government officials are debating the project's future and the potential culpability of various people and organizations involved. The building was subsequently demolished. On October 12, 2019, the under-construction building partially collapsed, resulting in the deaths of three workers and injuring dozens of others.
If completed, the project would have been known as the Hard Rock Hotel New Orleans.
