It's real.
It's as round as it is, presumably, because the engineers who planned the
excavation that happened underneath it designed it that way.
And the odds are that the depth of the area that was excavated will
closely match the actual depth of the hole that's above it. Think
'pushing a corkscrew about 1/2" into a bottle of wine'.
