My buddy Dan is an oceanic engineer, and sent me City Leaders Need to Make Billion-Dollar Decisions to Protect Boston from Sea Level Rise after a random conversation we had.

Like it's impressive how vibrant Seaport has become (when I worked there 10 years ago, there were so many parking lots where buildings stand now - and in terms of night life it's happening in a way people used to the pace of the 'burbs might not realize)

And yet... when the King Tides come, once or twice year, the water overflows the banks. And I really wonder how future proofed these buildings on the landfill are, if they're prepared for saltwater basements .
