Runaway Skyscraper

by Murray Leinster

Arthur Chamberlain, a struggling engineer, finds himself in a peculiar predicament when his Manhattan office building inexplicably vanishes into the fourth dimension. The disappearance disrupts the fabric of reality, transforming Madison Square into a strange, unfamiliar landscape. Arthur must utilize his ingenuity to unravel the mysteries of the fourth dimension and navigate the unpredictable changes it brings, while striving to return his building, and himself, to the familiar world of the present. This story explores themes of science, dimension-shifting, and the unforeseen consequences of pushing the boundaries of the known.
