My father was an industrialist who, in 1964, became an executive at Kaiser Aluminum in the Kaiser Center. Back then he told me that the building was constructed (or planned to be built) in the shape of a simple semicircle but that they found this shape caught the wind like a sail, inducing some sort of cracking or feared instability. To compensate for this they added the central spoke portion. I'm passing this on in hopes that someone can shed light on this old claim. DS-survivor (talk) 01:55, 9 August 2010 (UTC)Reply
