A view of slump down from the Monticello Village Apartments landslip in Athens, Athens County, Ohio. The Monticello Village Apartments was a complex of fourteen to sixteen buildings when construction was finished in 1968.

On November 7, 1972, four buildings were evacuated after additional rapid movement of the...
