Millennium Tower

New monitoring data shows that while the $100 million Millennium Tower fix appears to have stopped further sinking and tilting, the building is not reversing the lean at the rate predicted by engineers.

The sinking and leaning Millennium Tower may now be partly supported to bedrock, but a glass industry veteran says he is concerned about the ongoing risk from its windows after two failed during a windstorm earlier this year.

San Francisco’s millennium tower has been sinking and leaning for years, and though it appears further leaning and sinking has stopped, there’s a different concern: the windows. Jaxon Van Derbeken reports.

Two residents of the troubled Millennium Tower have complained to NBC Bay Area’s Investigative Unit about what they fear is the unpleasant byproduct of the continued tilting of the luxury high-rise — frequent drain backups.

A new problem is bubbling up at San Francisco’s Millennium Tower — sewage is backing up in some of the units. It’s an issue the tower’s lead fix engineer warned about two years ago. Raj Mathai spoke to Jaxon Van Derbeken for some insight.

San Francisco’s leaning and sinking Millennium Tower is now partly supported on two sides to bedrock, a major milestone for the troubled so-called fix designed to stabilize the high-rise and reverse its lean, NBC Bay Area Investigative Unit has learned.

Despite initial progress in the first phase of the so-called fix earlier this year, the sinking and leaning Millennium Tower in San Francisco is now tilting more to the west than ever, according to monitoring data reviewed by NBC Bay Area’s Investigative Unit. Jaxon Van Derbeken reports.

The fierce storm that whipped through San Francisco Tuesday is now suspected of triggering failures of 20 or more windows at the Salesforce Tower, and at least one window at the nearby Millennium Tower high-rise. Jaxon Van Derbeken reports.

There are new concerns about San Francisco’s Millennium Tower. Is the leaning and sinking luxury tower earthquake safe? NBC Bay Area’s Jaxon Van Derbeken takes a closer look.

San Francisco’s leaning Millennium Tower is now partly supported to bedrock as part of a “seismic upgrade,” but experts tell NBC Bay Area that questions remain about how well the newly bolstered tower will stand up in a quake.

San Francisco’s troubled Millennium Tower high-rise is now supported partially on one side to piles sunk to bedrock – bolstering that should assure the $100 million project will be completed without more sinking and tilting of the building, the fix’s lead engineer is telling residents.

The leaning Millennium Tower in San Francisco is now supported — at least along one side. Investigative Reporter Jaxon Van Derbeken has been tracking the tower’s troubles for years and has an update on the progress being made on the $100 million dollar project to stabilize it.

As work advances on the final phase of the so-called fix of the tilting Millennium Tower, a recent computer model predicts that when complete, the $100 million project will offset about half of the additional tilt the high-rise has experienced since the effort to secure it began in 2021.
