Chicago High-Rise Tank

[eraml]

All,

Looking at getting the Waterbox 100.3 or the 130.4
Have done some research on having tanks in a high-rise building, but hard to find good advice/examples.

Would you have concern of having either of these tanks on the 20th floor of a 70 floor building? (own - don't rent)
It is Lakepoint tower in Chicago (for anyone familiar) - so I am assuming it has concrete floors/well constructed for support.

Thanks

I know the owner of my house before me had a 110 tall on the second floor loft with no issues. And my house is stick built. I think at 125g + is where you need to start being concerned.

I know people in Miami with 180+ tanks. High rises are built incredibly sound. A regular house is completely different.
