Massive 5-mile seawall to be built in NYC to protect against future hurricanes
  • 5 years ago
U.S. Army Corp of Engineers has designed a seawall to help protect communities and reduce impacts during severe coastal storm surges during hurricanes. The plan calls for about 5 miles of seawall, levies and stormwater detention ponds. They hope to create something that will protect up to 2 feet higher than during Superstorm Sandy.
