Now mags, if they found an underground spring sinking the homes how did they let anyone build or stay in them? What can they do to fix them? I gotta admit, your story's kind of sticking to me now.

What? do you think the leads in this Ward really lead????

Latest UPDATE- I'm working with a group interested in the EARTH and we discovered that the Headwaters of the infamous Wingohocking Creek starts in MY backyard and under these townhouses.

In other words a powerful spring is coming up from under the Earth and it is the same source of water that has sunk so many homes in Philadelphia.

Lo and Behold-Yesterday-- I went out and there was the Water Department! They asked if I had a leak-- no--- water was in the street- a neighbor called them-- I showed them the Creek Map.

The developer nor City Council ever included the creek in the original plans. Planning Department totally sucked on this one.

Poor Donna. At one time she asked if a source spring at another
Wingohocken location could be tapped because homes were being destroyed.

The answer was NO. You can't really tap a volcano so it won't blow , can you?

Sometimes Mother Nature trumps politics.

It's just a matter of time and a bit of rain.

Paving over the flood plain will accelerate the show. My house may fall first-- but considering what the Joiners / Jointers Union said.... Nobody is talking. SSSSHHHHHH$$$$$$$$

It's just stupid to NOT fix this problem.

Just stupid.

But don't worry Alessis- I'm suffering a concussion but I haven't gone away.
