Yeah, I just read that part. "And [Numenor] was utterly destroyed. For it was nigh to the east of the great rift, and it's foundations were overturned and it went down into darkness, and is no more." However, it later states that Numenor "went down into the sea" with everyone and everything on it "and vanished forever". It also says a wave came over it and washed it to its fall. So, it may have been thrown into the chasm in which case that part of my suggestion is, well, pointless. However, (Hopeful music dramatically plays) perhaps the whole island was not thrown into the chasm, and some bits endured... Probably not.

Oh well. It would have been cool to have Sunken Numenor, but I guess I overlooked that part in the Silmarillion.
