September 11, 2001: Initial insights
from the MIT research community Are Skyscrapers Safe?
Impact on Architecture. Tall buildings will persist in high-density urban cores, but enthusiasm for "super-tall trophy towers" may wane in the near future, says William Mitchell, dean of the MIT School of Architecture and Planning. Since September 11th, the vulerability of very high towers may be another deterrent to building new ones, Mitchell said. He declined to dismiss skyscrapers as dinosaurs of urban design, but he noted how the digital revolution has created a "more mobile and connected workforce. When anyplace from an airport lounge to a bench under a tree can be a workplace, there is a lot less need for cubicle farms stacked up in towers."

    GENERAL INFORMATION Deep in the South Pacific, mountain tops rise from iridescent waters in a cluster of 170 islands that were settled at least 500 years before the birth of Christ. These islands are the Kingdom of Tonga. Fewer than 40 of the islands are inhabited now and the population numbers fewer than 100,000. But in the 13th century Tonga ruled a far-flung Polynesian Empire - Tongans are renowned navigators still. And the present King of Tonga, tracing descent from a royal dynasty formally proclaimed in 1845, follows in a tradition of rulers that stretches back for centuries. Today’s ease of travel and the ubiquitous eye of the camera make Tonga small, accessible and familiar. But the Kingdom of Tonga still remains far away from it all; still different, still alone, and to the joy of those who find their way to her - essentially unspoiled. On Sundays, Tonga goes to Church, joined by the King and Queen. No one works or conducts business on Sundays. Every village has its church ringing to the rafters with the richly blended harmonies of hymns fervently sung. Everywhere is the sound of music which Tongans so accurately call ‘sweet song’. Tonga takes great pride in its ancient Polynesian lineage. There is no attempt to follow the sophisticated world into a fast-paced, tension-packed way of life.

    Photo: Alejandro Balaguer
    Photo: Alejandro Balaguer I stood before the stern faces gazing sightlessly ahead with the same empty sockets as the kings of Luxor or the statues of Easter Island. All wear an expression that seems to be saying something we are still unable to grasp. But we weren't in Egypt, nor some wind-swept Pacific island, but the Chachapoyas mountain region in northeast Peru. Without realising I trod on the treacherous edge of the path and sent a stone plummeting in stark silence straight down into the green depths of the Juscubamba gorge far below. Paling to the colour of my underwear, I groped shakily for a place to sit, partly to better contemplate the Karajía sarcophagi and partly to let my heartbeat resume its normal rhythm. Looking at their position on the top of the abyss, you'd think the people that carved these tombs out of the bare rock must have had wings. My still-fresh fright had sent my imagination into overdrive and I had the strange feeling that the dead Sachapuya monarchs had just issued a warning, as if to say: What are you doing here, little man? Go back where you belong.
