At the time shortly before the great earthquake of April 1906, I. Magnin and Company was situated at 918-922 Market Street on the same block of the James Flood Building across from the Emporium Department Store. The last location on Market Street was opened in March 1901 and was considered quite elegant. It was a two story high structure, quite spacious and featuring electric lighting as well as beautiful natural light from above via an overhead skylight. It had a very fine entrance on Market Street and an even larger one on Ellis Street. The display cabinets were of fine wood and glass. There were plenty of fitting rooms and a rather luxurious ladies lounge. The store was approximately 10,000 square feet. The lower level (below street level) was for it's huge inventory. Because of it's continued success I. Magnin was building a new store on Grant which of course was destroyed during the earthquake. Before moving to 918-922 Market Street I. Magnin was located a block further northeast also on Market Street. The block on which the store was built was also referred to as the Baldwin block. Before the Flood building was built, the same site was home to one of old San Francisco's great hotels, the Baldwin Hotel, which burned down in 1899. The Flood building was built in 1905. In some pre-earthquake photographs of the Flood building looking east you can actually see the I. Magnin store situated three buildings east of the Flood, it was the shortest building on the block.
The Earthquake occurred before the tsunami as it is what caused the tsunami.
On a map they drew circles around at least three seismograph that recorded vibrations from earthquakes.
It's very possible that Christchurch could have another earthquake. However, the possibility is low, as Christchurch had no major earthquake before the earthquake in 2010.

Foreshock is what you call one of the little earthquakes that come before the big earthquake or main shock. The main shock may be followed by a little earthquake that's called the aftershock.
A hypothesis derived from observations of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. The earthquake cycle proposes that there is a drop in elastic strain after an earthquake and a reaccumulation of strain before the next event
the energy is stored before the earthquake in the exinstle manner of the earthquake. The exinstile manner is below the earthquake where the rumble happens.
Haiti was very peacefully before the latest earthquake.

That was the 1989 World Series and the Oakland Athletics defeated the San Francisco Giants 4 games to 0.
It could be days or YEARS before the major earthquake. Plate tectonics are always moving.
Minor earthquakes happen in the Bay Area of Northern California often (there are thousands a year in fact). But the two most major earthquakes to hit the area happened in 1906 and 1989.1906 - The San Francisco earthquake was a magnitude 7.9 and was one of the worst natural disasters in American history. Fires broke out in the city, 3,000 people were killed and 80 percent of the city destroyed.1989 - The Loma Prieta earthquake measured 6.9 on the Richter scale and killed 63 people. It is often called the World Series earthquake because it occurred minutes before the third game of the World Series between the San Francisco Giants and the Oakland A's.
