artificial high ground (one of our vertical evacuation structures)
What is a "vertical evacuation structure"? Is that just a sciencey way to say "tall building/skyscraper" so just heading up the stairs in any tall building will do, or are there certain buildings in CA/OR/WA that are designated as special "vertical evacuation structures"? If the latter, are they just certain reinforced buildings that are used as apartments/offices normally, or are they just empty tall buildings just sitting around just in case a tsunami is coming? Or are they something else entirely?
I guess the TL;DR here is how would a person identify the nearest "vertical evacuation structure"?
