Frequently asked questions
The gorge-side brick stays damp and the yard drains fine. Why?
Spray and mist off the falls. Gorge-side masonry takes airborne water that has nothing to do with ponding on the plain, so the yard can be perfectly drained while the wall is not. It is wetted from the air.
A basement on the clay, not on the gorge. Is the river still the job?
As the outlet, yes. Clay perches June rain and sends it into tile aimed at the gorge. When the gorge is already a waterfall in flood, that tile is a closed pipe. The wet wall is perched water with a blocked outfall, not river in the room.
Gorge-side brick staying wet on a dry day. Is that the falls?
Spray and seepage from the shale, often. The East Falls wet the cut even when the street is dry, and lime mortar takes that moisture. Looking at a clay lot up on the plain will miss a wall that is in the gorge's weather.
