Off the top of my head, something or other from WW II like a mount for an AA battery or part of a tank trap.
Extent of Roman Empire was further than we think.
Or a bus stop.
Iâm not 100% sure that was above water 2000 years ago. Rebound isnât as significant here as it is on the west coast.
Ok, they installed an air condenser at the project today.

Ok, which supervillain lair did this come out of?
I think Iâve heard of this somewhere- Itâs supposed to cut down the noise that the fan produces. But yes, that does look rather lethal.
I thought, âWhy would you need something that big?â Then I reread the post.
Iâm just glad it is at a state facility and not where some little kid will stick his fingers into.
Edinburghâs FloWave Ocean Energy Research Facility is one of the coolest things ever built.
Mysterious or mundane?
The discovery this week of an underground âmystery structureâ during transport project construction in Helsinki has attracted massive interest in the Finnish press and on social media.Some of the wilder, and not so necessarily serious suggestions as to its identity have including it being the lost pharaohâs tomb, a nuclear bunker, the Ark of the Covenant, a leftover from an ancient alien civilisation, and even the tomb of the American trade union leader Jimmy Hoffa who went missing in 1975.
According to Helsingin Sanomat, Päivi Litmanen-Peitsala is probably the closest to the truth.
Digging through newspaper archives, Litmanen-Peitsala found a clue pointing to a construction project close by the site of the find in the 1970s.
A photograph published by Kansan Uutinen in 1977 shows a tower crane standing in roughly the same place as the concrete block below ground, and the assumption is that it could be the support for a large crane.
Jussi Kainulainen, project manager of the Crown Bridges transport project, whose workers found the structure agrees that this is a likely explanation.
He told HS that nowadays this kind of temporary structure would be demolished when no lobger needed, but that wasnât always the case in the past.
However, Lauri Hänninen, communications manager for the Crown Bridges transport project who examined the archive photo, believes that the crane pictured is not in the exact same spot.
The mystery might be solved sometime Friday, when workers drill into the concrete structure for a closer look.

Seriously, samesies: I am way too invested in finding out the truth of this mystery!
