Sunken City: Broken Ground

In the climate I live in, this kind of damage could only be caused by freezing and tree roots heaving the pavement up. Here it's being caused by the ground underneath falling and being washed away.
It's not just the surface, but the entire structure of the ground that's broken.

"Sunken City" Landslide, San Pedro, California.

I have broken the links to hundreds and hundreds of photos, which will take a long time to repair. The workaround is to replace "photo.matthewpiers" in the link URL with "matthewpiers.smugmug". Awkward, but only temporary.

This is happening because I have revamped matthewpiers dot com. More of what I write and photograph will be going there, so check it out as well.
