If the flood plain is such a problem, we might as well demolish the entire area and return it to nature.That strategy is being pursued. NYS and NJ have been buying up Sandy damaged properties instead of paying the owners to repair them. Here's the flood plain map. You will note that a lot of the level 1 flood zones were originally swamps. Private developers could not get financing to build on these sites. They convinced the City to buy them for public use. |
