AE Interest: The curved architecture leads external wind to the two story ‘blow-through floor’ on level 83. This vacant floor is encased with 24′ perforated vertical grates that allow wind to pass through. This in combination with the liquid mass damper on a higher floor cut wind sway down by nearly 25%
