Parts of San Francisco are Sinking
 If you're an illegal immigrant, you might think about another sanctuary city, although the weather probably won't be as good. [NBCBayArea] New satellite data released by the European Space Agency confirms that San Francisco's 58-story Millennium Tower is sinking. The swanky mirrored skyscraper at 301 Mission Street - home to multi-million dollar apartments, some of them owned by celebrities like Joe Montana and Hunter Pence - has been infamously nicknamed the "leaning tower of San Francisco," after it was revealed that the tower was tilting and sinking. Hunter Pence? The baseball guy, born in Ft. Worth, Texas, plays right-field for the Giants. Not the NY Giants, either. "The Sentinel-1 satellites have shown that the Millennium Tower skyscraper in the center of San Francisco is sinking by a few centimeters a year," a study by ESA says. "Studying the city is helping scientists to improve the monitoring of urban ground movements, particularly for subsidence hot spots in Europe." Gee, ya think the satellites can pick up Angela Merkel's sinking? Posted by: Bobby 2016-11-28 |
