Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: This building in Mexico City was built on piles to prevent it from settling into the soft lakebed deposits. The underlying aquifer has compacted beneath the building and the building appears to be “rising” out of the ground. Mexico City is one of the few subsidence areas where this effect is observed |
