Banshee's Wail
A spooky howl can be heard bellowing out across Manchester city center when it's windy.
The mysterious sound
is caused by the 169-metre high, 47-storey, Beetham Tower
.
In 2012, architect Ian Simpson, who lives in an apartment at the top of the tower, publicly apologized.

On several occasions, engineers have scaled the tower on Deansgate, which cost £150 million to build, to try and carry out repairs and modifications to reduce the din generated by its glass blade.
