Landslide Brings Mansions in Dana Point to the Edge

Pricey homes on a clifftop in California's Dana Point got closer to the edge following a landslide. Photographs showed three mega-mansions in California's Dana Point perilously close to the Pacific Ocean following a landslide in the state.

Properties are Still Livable

Despite the mansions being so close to the edge, the properties are still livable. The engineers assured owners that their homes were in no danger of sliding into the sea.

'No Major Structural Issue'

Speaking to local media,  Lewis Bruggeman, who owns one of the homes said his property (worth $16 million) was "not threatened and it will not be" labelled uninhabitable. Bruggeman said that the administration agreed that there was no major structural issue with the house.

No Immediate Danger: Authorities

Dramatic photographs from the affected region showed lighter sand and soil that was exposed with the tumbling of the darker cliff face, with chunks of greenery in the new crater. Authorities said that while the photographs were dramatic, there was no immediate danger.
