Has this Mall with Office Tower, called the Klal Building. It was one of the first large such buildings, and as such has REALLY thick and deep foundations. It is well known in Orthodox circles that Cohanim should NOT enter this building, because those foundations have some permanent "residents", shall we say.
In Jewish Law, you can't in general have a unilateral divorce, so if the husband or wife just "disappears" their spouse is in a rather difficult spot... Because of this, you have the rather surreal situation were we've had members of the Rabbinical Courts go before the "Underworld Court", to accept testimony that indeed the missing person [of a known criminal background] is no longer among the living.
