something poetically just about a filthy metropolis going underground.

Yeah, I like it.

[End Times Sentinel]

Great.

An underground city full of junkies and whores. Soon to be choked with the suicidal sons of the desert.

Can’t wait.

[Brilliant]

I don’t think I would want to be underground in a country that is below sea level.

God built the world, but the Dutch built Holland.

[jacob allen]

Brilliant!! Can someone say New Orleans.

[capt. norm]

I can’t, for the life of me, understand why New Orleans didn’t consult with the engineers in the Netherlands that seem to handle being below sea-level quite capably.

Does this mean that if the underground city begins to flood Hans Brinker will have to stick his finger in a sewer manhole?

The canals aren’t very wide, and in some locations there are already underground structures alongside the canal (which are, as I recall, pretty damp inside). So to construct any significant structures, they are probably going to have to undermine adjacent buildings.

Muzz are thinking -—Wow more stuff for us when we take over

[Grut]

Interestingly, at a million square feet that ‘city’ is a little less than one-quarter the size of the Mall of America.

[torchthemummy]

$7,400 per square foot. Somebody with more knowledge can tell me how outrageous that is or isn’t. And needless to say that price will go higher.

Have these people checked out Atlanta?

Last time I was there I was told NEVER to go underground. It wasn’t safe.
