    High rise building make their own wind tunnels. Imagine being inside when your widows blow out

    Happened in downtown Atlanta some time ago too.
  • I’ve worked at the Wells Fargo building and the old FIP building and experienced several of the windows blown out from high winds with multiple storms in the past. Believe me this is the worse than I’ve ever seen it.. Recovery is going to take time..

    There were more broken Windows Downtown during this than in Alicia "1983" and Ike "2008"!

  • This is why I would never live in a place like this. Too many helicopters all over flying into everything.

  • @garydavis4982
    Why is one building damaged with blown windows. Shoddy construction.
  • @bobholtzmann
    Looks like the Philip Johnson's famous buildings, like Pennzoil Place and The Bank of America escaped damage, although I didn't see all of it.
