A: had been built at a high enough altitude that it often makes modern-day tourists from lower elevations sick with oxygen deprivation--> the usage of past perfect is not required ,as it is already known explicitly that the construction of the site was done in the past.
B: had been built at so high of an altitude that it often makes modern-day tourists from lower elevations sick from oxygen deprivation--> the usage of past perfect is not required ,as it is already known explicitly that the construction of the site was done in the past.
C: was built at a high enough altitude that modern day tourists from lower elevations often become sick with oxygen deprivation when visiting the city-->sick with oxygen deprivation is wrong usage,although the problem with past perfect tense is rectified.

A: had been built at a high enough altitude that it often makes modern-day tourists from lower elevations sick with oxygen deprivation
'altitude' is the one making tourists sick. 'it' isn't needed.
'from', 'by', anything meaning a cause is preferred to 'with'. Because tourists get sick cased by the altitude.
Not sure of 'had been' usage
B: had been built at so high of an altitude that it often makes modern-day tourists from lower elevations sick from oxygen deprivation
'it', 'had been'
C: was built at a high enough altitude that modern day tourists from lower elevations often become sick with oxygen deprivation when visiting the city
D: was built at such a high altitude that modern-day tourists from lower elevations often become sick from oxygen deprivation when visiting the city
