Leaning Towers of Santos, Brazil
It turns out that there are leaning towers in other countries besides Italy. The leaning towers in Santos, Brazil, however, are occupied by people, unlike the Leaning Tower of Pisa, which is mostly a tourist attraction. These structures should have had deeper foundations, but because of lax building regulations, they were hurriedly constructed into soft clay, which caused them to lean to one side. Even if they do have an odd appearance, this might be disastrous in the event of an earthquake.
