march, which it sullivans march, just south of market. not only did it solidify and saddle, but when the ground slopes, and actually flows and moves latterly. some areas of mission creek and sullivan's marsh, that was on the order of 15 feet. it was significant. everything you see south of market was built after the 1906 earthquake. the longer the time between the 1906 earthquake and the time of construction, the more likely people forgot about all the damage that occurred in 1906. so they were not as sensitive and perhaps cautious as they should be. many of these buildings that we see south of market, while they appear to be in excellent shape and are performing well, have not been either seismically strengthened or had at the subsurface conditions improved, so they are waiting. there could be significant damage during the next major earthquake. >> that reminds me of one of the central questions i wanted to ask you. which is this example relief focuses on the point. that is, what would you recommend for someone who is considering purchas

sullivan: in 1630, boston was basically three mountains, there were very steep hills. waste would run down quickly and dump into the harbor. and the tide would carry most of it away. well, this worked well for a while. the problem was, as boston wanted to expand, it started filling in the mudflats. the water could come rushing down the hill, it would hit the flat area and slow down. at high tide, it couldn't get out at all. it got so bad that the city took over, 'cause the city has a responsibility to protect its citizens. boston built the first modern sewer system in the united states. ours was completed between 1877 and 1884. with this wonderful new sewer system, we were taking our filth and moving it out to the ocean. of course, all of this was untreated. in the 1960s, we were still pumping all of our sewage out to moon island, untreated. we would get swimmers here, never knowing, in the middle of summer, why you would have a cold. well, we were swimming in diluted sewage. melosi: the major way to deal with pollution, at least until early into the 20th century, was
