Throughout this video it has been said that the architects designed the buildings structure. Please try to understand that architects have absolutely nothing to do with a buildings structural design . All design related to earthquake, wind loading, foundations etc is done by civil/structural engineers NOT architects. Architects only design the layout and general shape of the building. Please give credit to engineers for what is actually the most difficult part of designing a skyscraper

[@ryanrodriguez4535]

Eh. Engineers get the money, architects get the credit. Seems fair to me

[@gorillaump5869]

Nah!

[@alansd25]

Architects and engineers work collaboratively to come to a structural solution that works with the architectural design. Don't down play the architects role as just designing "the layout and general shape of the building". That's naive and uninformed. Engineers are equally as important but don't be salty and reduce the architects role.

[@influence2025]

After 9/11, hurricane storms, etc.. there is no way I could comfortablely sleep in a building that tall. No way

[@Bonteg13]

For me I’m not as much worried about hurricanes because none have knocked buildings that y’all but 9/11 is the reason why I’m scared at times when I go on y’all buildings

[@montyi8]

What about earthquake?

[@freetrader0000]

I spent an earthquake in a relatively short building. I was only in the 9th floor and it wasn't a huge earthquake. However, the swaying could be felt a lot more, we had nausea, and every rumble and noise gave me little confidence on high rise buildings. I'm sure I would've been more calm and composed in the ground floor. I later found out that only houses fell down, and that supposedly high rise buildings were safer. I guess the main issue is my fear of heights!

[@liaammm396]

Monty earthquakes don’t really happen in New York. The only time I remember was when the 2012 Japanese earthquake happened and the ground just shook a little but no damage

I don't understand why people would want to live that high up. What happens if there's a fire at 3am on the 20th floor and you're on the 67th? You're pretty much dead if the fire spreads to the staircase. Ever heard the 911 calls on 9/11 from people on high floors? That would make you think twice about living high up, it's scary af!

I have a view of this building from my windows. It's really impressive. The view from the sidewalk across the street from it, as well as the other super tall new building down the street, gives me a little vertigo. We were going to a concert at Carnegie Hall, before things shut down, and we both had the same reaction. You almost can't bend your neck far enough back to look all the way up there. It's pretty cool. We live in a highrise now. We have friends that live on the 55th floor in a building in that neighborhood. Where else but Manhattan can you live that high up and have an obstructed view. I love the city, covid-19 won't scare me away. I'll be the last to leave. It's awesome here.

Manhattan is only so big..it doesn’t have enough land to keep building outwards so they go upwards..with each new billion dollar build it creates more Uber rich areas that only billionaires can live in.

These multi million dollar apartments that have sprung up all over NYC in the past 15/20 years are bought by people who might occupy them 3/4 months of the year. Meanwhile “normal” people are being squeezed out of Manhattan thru higher and higher cost of living. Iconic 5th Ave.stores are closing permanently (e.g. Henri Bendel, Lord & Taylor ) iconic hotels (e.g, Plaza, Waldorf=Astoria) are being turned into ultra expensive apartments with reduced rooms, there are fewer live theatres than 25 years ago and of course major movie theatres have been gone for many years (last one was the Ziegfeld) . Times Square is now a mix of Vegas and Disneyland. Don’t know what the future of the city is but it sure will be very different to what previously made it so famous.
