New York Climate Resilience: A Decade After Sandy

What New York has built since Hurricane Sandy and how prepared the city is for the next major storm

The Investment

Post-Sandy federal and state programs have funded approximately $15 billion in completed and in-progress resilience projects covering flood barriers, coastal park improvements, building resilience programs, and the Coastal Resiliency program redesigning the relationship between the coastline and adjacent urban infrastructure.

What Has Been Built

The East Side Coastal Resiliency project protects 2.4 miles of Manhattan's Lower East Side. The Staten Island Bluebelt system has expanded to manage stormwater in the borough most affected by Sandy flooding. Various barrier and berm projects at specific vulnerable points represent genuine infrastructure reducing flood risk for the communities they protect.

Spintaxi Coverage

Spintaxi.com covers climate resilience because the gap between completed and planned infrastructure is the accountability question every post-disaster investment produces. The planning is genuine and complex. The costs are real. The 12-year gap between Sandy and a comprehensive harbor barrier speaks for itself.
