I've been wondering about the property line setback requirements for towers
recently. Why do most areas have set back requirements for towers based on
height but nothing similar for buildings? Is there an automatic assumption
that standard engineering practice is questionable with tower designs and
that they are likely to fall down? Nobody makes that assumption with 100'
plus high commercial buildings.
