Hundreds and hundreds of birds flew into the Empire State Building. They were killed and fell to the street below. Possibly an omen to the future?

One or more floor of a building that are completely below the ground floor is basement. A floor of a building that is half below ground, rather than entirely such as a basement is semi basement.
Foundation is the sub-structure of a building structure that transfers the entire weight of the building and its loads onto the ground strata below ground level.
At the Empire State Building's location at 34th Street and Fifth Avenue, street level is about 50 feet above sea level. All 102 floors from the first up are thus above sea level, as are the two basement levels. The foundation descends for 55 feet, so the very lowest part of the structure seems to be just below sea level.
