Well, let’s say, for the sake or argument that it’s double - a full 120 mph. Does anyone see that as toppling the Empire State Building?

Toppling? No
Sweeping the floors clean? perhaps...
And remember, this isn’t gusting, but sustained winds over a period of hours.

Don’t give in to the panicmongers.

This is not about toppling buildings. Far more likely is that skyscraper windows will be blown out and city streets will be pelted with glass shards.
