A violation notice by the San Francisco Department of Building Inspection states that the Salesforce East tower at 350 Mission Street had at least 20 broken or cracked windows.
As many as six San Francisco high rises have had windows broken, seemingly coinciding with the recent windy weather. Department of Building Inspection officials have deemed some of the buildings unsafe and are looking into the matter.A violation notice by the San Francisco Department of Building Inspection states that the Salesforce East tower at 350 Mission Street had at least 20 broken or cracked windows.
"I expect to introduce that legislation on April 4th as well as call hearings to bring national and international experts. I mean this is not happening in Singapore with typhoons. This is not happening in Chicago, the windy city. Why is it happening here?" Peskin asked. Wind is once again blasting the Bay Area from yet another atmospheric river. Christian Kafton reports from Embarcadero Center where glass fell from a high rise at Sacramento and Davis streets.
The DBI also issued notices of violation to building managers, ordering them to secure broken windows, replace them and then obtain an inspection from a professional engineer to assess the safety. The violation notice states the building managers then need to submit a final report within 14 days. City officials didn't provide specifics on whether the windows were shattered by the fierce winds San Francisco, and the greater Bay Area, experienced on Tuesday.
