8/10 - nice design and I heard it was the safest building in Mexico (earthquake wise).

something about torre mayor
_1ULfbn_miA

hey, is it true that torre pemex is the tallest building in the world standing after an earthquake greater than 8.0?

hey, is it true that torre pemex is the tallest building in the world standing after an earthquake greater than 8.0?

Well, yes it is, alongside Torre Latinoamericana, World Trade Center Mexico, the Mexicana Tower and many others, it stood after the 8.0 Richter scale ( maximum intensity or peak intensity ; 8.5 ) earthquake that stroke Mexico City for over 2 minutes, September 19th, 1985. It also survived a 7.9 earthquake the following day, September 20th ( a replica of the main one ).

And Torre Latinoamericana also took the ones of 1957 ( 7.8 ) and 1979 ( 7.5 ), and obviously both in 1985 ( 8.1 and 7.9 ).

By the way, today, August 30th 2007, a bomb-car was found in Torre Mayor. All of itīs 12,000 tenants and visitors were evacuated. Other bombs were reported in a department store and in the World Trade Center Mexico, though the largest one was found inside Torre Mayor.

8/10, Of course being objective, but in my heart i'll give it a 10/10 jejeje, most of all because it`s a symbol, of the emergent economy of latin america, cause not all amazing latin buildings are in mexico but Sao Paolo (Brazil), Bogota (Colombia), Santiago (Chile)

Ive seen this just the other day on Discovery. Its a very ingenious building, capable of withstanding major quakes. According to the builders, it's the safest place to be when an earthquake hits Mexico city! (sounds like words said before)
Beautiful building nontheless.

Apart from its cool & sleek appearance it is also an "intelligent" edifice with cutting edge anti-seismic technology which I heard has already been put to the test and passed with flying colors! Torre Mayor kicks major skyscraper ass!!
