FILE - In this July 15, 2017 file photo the Marco Polo building is shown after a fire the day before gutted several of the top floors of the residential high-rise in Honolulu.

Cost is often cited, but after the deadly blaze in Honolulu, many question if the economics outweigh the potential for tragedy. (AP Photo/Marco Garcia, File)
