Can you believe the US loses over 80,000 acres of wetlands every year?

I think they used something called a floating foundation, but don't quote me on that.

NOPE! Bedrock is at seventy feet under the big easy according to Worlds Fair History of New Orleans Site. That would mean that #1 Shell Plaza, the South's first real Skyscraper, has footings set at the same depth as our own 1919 Jacksonville Terminal!! McCoy's Creek was a salt marsh not unlike Clapboard Creek, or the Talbot Island Creeks, and the whole place sits on hundreds of pilings.

In New Orleans, they dig for more dirt, back fill, and reenforce eternally, while the idiots here removed the track and dug out 12 feet of fill, and plan to remove the rest, for a new Amtrak Station. Do I hear a Tropical Storm Warning? Blub! Blub! Blub! EMBARGO!
