Structural Integrity

LeMessurier couldn’t build on the corners because you needed to accommodate St. Peter’s Lutheran Church. They would be allowed to use the air space and the lot; however, they had to stay away from the corners, which would later cause problems for the design. I found the napkin idea interesting that the designer made his initial design on a napkin. I wonder if my most brilliant idea will be drawn a napkin. The biggest problem of the building is quarterly winds. Quarterly winds attack the corners. He couldn’t believe it, but after doing the math he realized every 16 years could make the tower collapse. While a student mentioned it to LeMessurier, the one who released the story was Joe Morgenstern. He interviewed the builder and found out all the secrets. I am worried now after reading this story because I rather not have that big tower coming crashing down and hurting people. I understand they have a ten-mile plane in case something happens, but what if we don’t see it coming. This could really harm the city. I am wondering if there is a storm brewing anytime soon.
