Wacky Weds: Baby it’s cold out, even for this wall

Retaining walls are designed to handle heavy loads…

Well it appears that the cold maybe winning this fight. Not only does the wall appear to be leaning, it is showing other signs that there might be more issues.

Fortunately the driveway set 15 feet back from the edge still looks to be in good shape. If I had to guess the engineers will be getting another chance to get this done right in a few more years.
