Vertical Tsunami Shelters -
I thought the hotels in Honolulu were built to withstand a tsunami, but maybe it's just a tidal surge. Does anyone know? According to this article, the first vertical tsumani shelter in the country is being built in Washington state.
The first vertical tsunami evacuation structure in the country, capable of holding the approximately 1,000 people living within a 20-minute walking distance of the structure.
