The sinking and leaning Millennium Tower may now be partly supported to bedrock, but a glass industry veteran says he is concerned about the ongoing risk from its windows after two failed during a windstorm earlier this year.
Normally, windows that open in high rises have to be safety glass, so the inner pane will either hold together or break into small harmless pieces if something goes wrong.
San Francisco Supervisor Aaron Peskin, who has held several hearings on the status of the troubled Millennium Tower, says the risk of glass hitting someone in a unit is unacceptable. And while Millennium officials say they’re installing more than 3,000 new stay arms to better secure the windows, Peskin says he remains skeptical. “I have serious questions at this point as to whether or not the stay arms are actually going to even fix the problem.”
San Francisco’s millennium tower has been sinking and leaning for years, and though it appears further leaning and sinking has stopped, there's a different concern: the windows. Jaxon Van Derbeken reports.
