That is a pretty good show. I watched one just the other night about Dublin that was excellent.

There’s a big section of downtown Seattle where the original streets and shops are 10 feet underground. Subsidence, floods, FIRES, barbarians laying waste to the town; there are any number of reasons.

I’ve seen that show - it is FANTASTIC!

In downtown Chicago there are numerous buildings that appear to have been built at street level. But if you go into the basement, you see large entrances and windows. Chicago flooded so often that in the mid-1800s the entire downtown area was built up with fill to raise the street level one full floor.

"I read somewhere that earthworms turn over the soil and gradually cause foundations, etc. to sink over the centuries."

The major ground tillers (earth worms) in this area have been replaced with the Fire Ant. The Fire Ants till the soil more than the earthworms now.
