The foundation for the 54 floor luxury Millennium Tower in San Francisco has settled at least 16 inches and the building is also leaning 2 inches out of plumb.

The same thing happened to the brand new 32 floor Ocean Tower condo on Padre Island in Texas and it finally had to be demolished.
There haven't been any strong earthquakes since the Millennium Tower was built in 2009 and I suspect a moderately severe quake will finish it off.
