For Construction Buffs

[honey2000]

On discovery channel they often show quite extraordinary feats, moving lighthouses et al They have all the right gear as well

But if you go a few hundred metres north of the Marriot hotel, I'm not exactly sure what these guys and girls are doing, but

they seem to be lifting a church, using methods from the pyramids era.

You can see the church as u approach the marriot by their boat. N13 42.310 E100 29.665

If anyone knows what is going on please share.

From your picture it looks like it's got subsidence.Seems like their trying to prevent it further.

Your post does not refer to a city, not all of us know where the Marriott is. I think they have quite a few.

Look close at the under side it looks as if they are putting in a foundation. So the building will set up higher. Could be that the church is taking a flood of Bangkok serious.

they probably have inside information.

as for the person complaining about being unable to tell what city, weren't the gps coordinates specific enough for you?

Suffice to day op that if you said Marriot Riverside instead of some gps co-ordes most of us wouldn't have been thinking Nana plaza was sinking.

Sorry, Bangkok's coordinates just slipped my mind for a moment. Imagine that.

When you start seeing animals go in two by two then start worrying.

Someone in the church has had a vision about Bangkok flooding.

Gotlost is spot on I think.

Looks like there reinforcing foundations to raise the high of the building.
