At least if no one's looking.

I remember a harrowing story about Late Victorian England, wherein they tore down an old apartment building to the (shitty) foundations and attempted to build a new one from scratch... only to find so much waste had been dumped in the immediately surrounding area that the terrain was basically shit-mush that all had to be removed and replaced with actual soil before the new construction could begin. ๐Ÿ˜ฌ
