They have been building on that soil for 300 years.

From the pics I’m getting the top side of the 15 or so story building came down.

Looks like outer parts of upper floors. It would help if a good picture was available and not some film from a camera waver.

New Orleans corruption. Inspectors got paid off, engineering firm overseeing construction got paid off. Same ol’ same ol’.
