"The side of the building facing Lake Elizabeth shows several examples of tectonic movement caused by a strike-slip motion along the Hayward Fault. A strike-slip fault is when one land mass moves, nearly horizontally, in the opposite direction of the other on the surface. The movement on the patio reflects larger land structures that are forming throughout Central Park. Lake Elizabeth and Stivers Lagoon (south of lake) are larger depressions,while the hilly areas (north) reflect a compression. Strike-slip faults show transpre,ssional compression (knolls) and transtensional extension (depressions)."
