I saw this clown interviewed by Lee Goldberg who is a meteorologist here in NY. The engineer completely made a WAG on this. He basically claims he figured out the weight of over 1M buildings, came up with a load and weight number and determined it’s sinking 1mm a year. Total and absolutely useless exercise. But I’m sure he got a government grant to do this.
I thought the reason why almost all of the biggest buildings are where they are because they’re built over granite bedrock. How does that sink?
at 1mm a year, in about 10,000 years they may start to notice.
Although, we should factor the mass exodus of NYers, empty skyscrapers, etc....so they’ve got a bit more than that.
