I was around eight years old when I first stepped into a tall, frighteningly swaying, apartment building. I remember darting to the window to see if the building was falling. Seven years of ferry crossings had not prepared me for a building that moved like a boat. As an adult, I learned the fear quelling facts about foundations and dampers, but I’m still unsettled every time I get into an elevator that goes higher than 4 floors.
