WHAT WE KNOW:
At the projected 2100 sea-level rise, these neighborhoods will be vulnerable to regular flooding first, due to topographical data and a projected rise of 3 to 6 feet. This is similar to the projections of storm-surge levels for the next 35 years.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR RESIDENTS:
This means that residents and home-owners along the Greenway corridor, need to prepare for minimizing personal and property damage due to rising probability of flooding of their streets, basements, and

-The main circulation of the building will be ineffective in the future, given that its access points are below the DFE.
-Service equipment in cellar may need to be relocated above DFE to be protected against storm surges.
-Basments will be experiencing constant flooding, which will directly impact the building foundation and most service layouts.

-Supporting the structure of this building is a set of steel beams and columns that help carry the weight of the building
-The services to this building are located in the basement level. With the location of this building, the services will be in danger of damage from the 100 year flood plain
-The buildings foundation has experienced water damage in the past. With the different structural systems, the building is in danger of failing.

-The over all structure and building envelope are left volnerable to moisture and water damage. There is currently evidence of mold and rot throughout the building.

3/ foundation
The foundation has recently been re-bricked to be structurally sound and water resistant.
2/ services
-The building has a balloon construction with a brick facade. Due to its age and construction, the wall cavity is much smaller than standard modern construction. This makes updating the energy efficiency much harder.
