I don't think it has anything to do with the water table. Here is a link to an article that provides a pretty good explanation: http://sf.curbed.com/2016/9/16/12945600/why-millennium-tower-sinking Reply #1. Nov 30 16, 5:22 PM |

Are you sure it can be seen sinking from space? Apparently they can't even see the Great Wall of China from that far up. Or am I thinking of the moon? I suppose it depends on how far up they mean. Either way, what dopey engineers and architects. Reply #2. Dec 01 16, 7:00 PM |

According to the European Space Agency it can be seen from space. They claim to have pictures. The Agency is engaged in tracking ground movement. They did not mention the moon. Reply #3. Dec 01 16, 7:30 PM |

I recently saw someone refer on the internet to "The Leaning Tower of Pizza" and they did mean the building in Pisa. Reply #5. Mar 29 18, 5:54 AM |

According to one of my students (from decades ago when I taught high school science), "Galileo used dead people and dropped them off the Learning (sic) Tower of Pizza, then measured the weight of gravity". I kid you not. Reply #6. Apr 28 18, 10:30 PM |
