Why was the Marina District in California hit so hard by the most recent quake?
It was built on soft ground that shakes more than the firmer ground of other nearby areas. In the Old Days, the Marina District was mostly shallow bays and wetlands. It was filled up so people could build on it. But the mud, debris, and dredging that was dumped into the water to create the new construction sites just isn't as solid as rocky hills or even older natural soils. When an earthquake hits the softer soil wobbles more than firmer soils would, and buildings built on it are shaken more than buildings on more solid ground would be. Given equal standards of construction, greater damage is going to be unavoidable.

Why does the marina district of San francisco suffer more damage from earthquakes than surronding areas?
The Marina district of San Francisco is built on landfill, which is susceptible to liquefaction during an earthquake, making it more vulnerable to damage. The loose, sandy soil in the Marina can amplify seismic waves, causing more shaking and destruction compared to surrounding areas with more stable soil. Additionally, the Marina's proximity to the San Andreas Fault increases the likelihood of stronger shaking during earthquakes.
