In the process of helping a client to design Mega Tall 3300 for building 2014 in NY City, an issue of the existing city grid's limitations appeared for safe, economical Mega Tall mixed-use 4000' + buildings. Working with the late Leslie Robertson Engineer, who designed the original WTC 1 and 2 structure before his passing 2 1/2 years ago, was instrumental help. At 35 feet above current sea level this building relocates for 50 to 100 years the areas submerging in Lower Manhattan allowing City to function while we replan NY City at higher ground (recent finding in Antarctica 153'possible)
