  • Last spring, a window at San Francisco’s Millennium Tower blew out of its frame during a wind storm raising questions and concerns about safety of the city’s high rise buildings in bad weather. The incident, and half a dozen others, triggered calls for inspections, and changes. But as NBC Bay Area’s Investigative Reporter Jaxon Van Derbeken explains, not much appears to have changed at the tower, one year later.

    This is an HOA. The HOA management has to contact the owner of the unit. The owner may not be living there for an extended period of time perhaps because they purchased the unit as an investment property aka "see throughs." The HOA management does have the right to enter a unit with prior notice to effect repairs.

      I believe the real estate community coined this term in reference to unoccupied condos in narrow towers. Because no one lives there the drapes are always open enabling people to see straight through to the windows on the other side of the apartment. Such real estate investments appeal to very wealthy people who want to diversify their portfolio and hide their assets from their government. The loss of rental income doesn’t bother them.

      I would be interested why a stop work order was not issued when the plans were altered to use cement on the upper floors which added more weight to the structure was never in the original blueprints and steel was the material to be used for the project.
