Vertigo58 Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Seems the tower has been saved from collapse! The attached links tell all. Maybe its just me but I cant see much difference. Oh well... It's still meraviglioso anyway! (wonderful). There was quite a big celebrating as well! Salute everyone! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml...6/18/wpis18.xml http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml...28/wpisa128.xml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwilson Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 I'd still be worried about too much compression on the columns on the leaning side and that the columns on the opposing side would be in tension, which they weren't engineered to be.

This is one baby I am not going into. I will be just as happy to snap photos from a distance. Maybe they have people sign a waiver before you enter? Did you see when it was orginally built? It's a relic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
