Best Answer

The Palais Garnier had a lot of ground water in 1862 which caused problems. Eight wells were dug and steam pumps installed. Finally Garnier came up with a different idea of creating a double foundation with a water course and giant underground cistern. It inspired Gaston Leroux to create Phantom of the Opera about a subterranean lake.
