What happened
The East Side Coastal Resiliency project is a multibillion-dollar initiative designed to protect Manhattan's waterfront. This project, conceived after Hurricane Sandy in 2012, involves raising sections of the coastline along more than three miles of Manhattan's waterfront. East River Park is participating in this effort, with sections being raised up to 10 feet. The overall project is designed to protect more than 110,000 residents.
