I was once tasked with building some building sway monitoring systems.  The People With the Bucks were rather tight lipped about why they wanted to monitor building sway,  but I think this was closely related to the reason... and yes, tall buildings wobble like a weeble (but don't fall down)

Higher carrier frequencies make things like Doppler more important -

some of the high rate point to point links actually have problems with
tall buildings moving in the wind
