In the early design phase, before any geotechnical reports, simply a concept and always low budget. And nothing more.

The only reality is the building has settled to the point where it is 2-feet out of plumb, which is huge.
Every building is designed to settle and every skyscraper is designed to sway, to a degree, in the wind, but being 2 feet out of plumb has to be introducing a lot of unexpected stress on the building’s frame. What happens with a strong earthquake?
