Here in Seattle we have a double decked freeway called the Viaduct. We have had more referendums and studies about how earthquake ready it is. It is still standing and acceptable movement is what has been cited. That part of Seatlle is a marshy and mushy piece of land. Much like the Market District in SF.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Yesterday I had to travel the underbelly road of it, I felt very unsafe. I never take it but I was running late for work. The Oakland collapse was 1989. We still have done nothing. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Also the poor in NO are living part of the aspired lifestyle that urban developers want. No transportation of their own and frequent users of the public transportation.
