Yup, I believe it was that and Holy Cross Hospital, both were on San Fernando Mission Blvd right in the foothills, I think both are in the pics I found.
Anything that was built up on a filled lot sank with liquifaction and stuff that was built on cut lots fared better, same happened in the Northridge quake, I was in Auburn Wa when that one hit, seeing it on the news. Was 14 months before I made it down there and it was stiff just rubble piles everywhere, I guess from talking to some of my old friends, the quakes we're remarking on were pretty much cute in comparison. One buddy said he woke up on his living room couch to the television bouncing back down off the ceiling it had crashed through, [shocked]
Everyone else, big tough boys I grew up with on the ocean, didn't even want to talk about it, could only gather from the looks. Northridge and Granada hills over a year later were still in shambles with half of those apt structures perched over their parking condemned. Folks everywhere took their insurance money and RAN , were empty houses everywhere.
Well, I'll see you when you get here Dryrod [laugh], that Pacific plate is twisted bad around that dogleg, should make Anchorage look like a carnival ride lol. and its several tens of thousands of years overdue. Should make for some interesting fishing when the shaking all stops.[fishin]
