When I worked for WPIX (now WQCD) in New York my office was on the
28th floor of the Daily News Building. Occasionally a bird would
crash into a window. I had a corner office with lots of windows and a
terrace. Many of them hit the window, dropped to the terrace,
regained consciousness and flew away. A tower is different. They hit
the guys, are knocked unconscious and die when they hit the ground
from great heights.
Just in case, they're planning to tear down the building. No more
Superman movies.
