All the windows rattle in a scary fashion.

Why did they build such a huge expensive thing
in Commie NYC ???

I'd say Florida - but there's no good spot for
a skyscraper. The coasts get hurricanes and
the whole middle is rotten rotten limestone,
you'd need pilings hundreds of feet long.

I've dived caves/sinkholes in that area, the
limestone 'bedrock' is all eaten away, looks
like Swiss cheese - but more Swiss than cheese.
The 'lake district' near Orlando, those aren't
lakes, but hundreds of sinkholes. In a few
hundred years it'll all be one huge long
lake in the middle.

The Dallas/FW area would have been better
for JP Morgan ....

In any case, Morgan should just LEAVE NYC, as
fast as possible. Everyone with two cents in
their pockets should.

Back in the 80's I had a friend who worked in the WTC in NYC.
Her office was on one of the top floors in 1 WTC. You could actually feel
the building swaying and many people got seasick on their first days working there
but got used to it after a couple of days.

Liberals claim to want to give a hearing to other views,
but then are shocked and offended to discover that there
are other views.

Modern construction ... a bit too limber.

Old-school, Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, they
used heavier steel, more stone. Of course that's more
expensive, so ......
