That part of the building looks like it may have been built on some fill.

This is true, if you are going to live in West Virginia live on a hill or mountain. It really sucks in the winter having to drive down but it beats flooding.

“That part of the building looks like it may have been built on some fill.”

It was. I remember when it was built, I was at Marshall at the time.

See post 10! Also the geology there is shale-sandstone-shale etc. When exposed by construction, road cuts etc. over time
can become unstable. Add as in post 10 says this stuff happens.

West Virginia, the most CONSERVATIVE state in the country, Target selling Globohomo almost exclusively. God was going to weigh-in, at some point.
