The city has been sinking for centuries and is still sinking since it is built on top of a lake, is it possible for it , under so much weight, to at any moment collapse?

I'd be more worried about the volcano right next door. I wasn't aware of it being built atop a lake. Something I'll research and figure out some more.
And in terms of New Orleans, the only thing I can imagine being more idiotic than building a city below sea level, and surrounded by a lake and river, is to REBUILD the city in such a location. Must have been another of Bush's ideas...

Glad to peer any person with a nick similar to yours that truthfully does not speak approximately Mexico in a bad approach most effective. I do not know if it might sink, however with the entire hundreds of thousands and hundreds of thousands of persons which are arriving there, I might believe it might ultimately cave in. Before that occurs, I might get the treasure of Monctezuma that's buried beneath town so I'll be wealthy by the point it sinks, haha.

If there was a huge earthquake the building could collape but the city is not going to collaps on it's own.
