I just hope they anchor this thing correctly: that area is prone to heavy subsidence.  :buggedout:

Also, the idea of turning the Centurion Lake into a swimming pool: Yuck. That place is a sewer.
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

If this is a lake that is spring-fed I must wonder about watershed damage to the foundation. :question:
Yes,I'm fine....as long as I don't look too closely.

Also, when there is heavy rain in the area, the hotel's parking garage is flooded out. This last happened in early 2011.

Should have thought more about this and less about developement dollars.
