Mt. Vesuvius, Italy

Mt. Vesuvius: example of urban development in the face of science (and of common sense). Even though, thanks to the Romans, it has been known since 79 A.D. that areas as far as the coast are in the highest danger zone, they were promptly rebuilt, and further development has been allowed to sneak up closer and closer to the top of the volcano.
