The changing San Francisco skyline
When we moved to San Francisco from Chicago, the SF skyline seemed downright quaint, in part presumably due to earthquake concerns. Plans are now being drawn up for a slew of new high rises, including what would be the tallest building west of Chicago. Even with the most iron-clad engineering guarantee to assuage my concerns, I would not want to be in the the nearly 1000 foot high rise during a quake!
