I like in New Orleans. New Yorkers need to realize how lucky they are to get this much investing and thought put into saving the city instead of protesting every little thing. I would be fine with loud noise if it meant out city didn't get plunged underwater every hurricane.
Imagine believing that NY would have hundreds of billions of dollars to spend on a project this massive. Imagine thinking that some US project this big could be completed in 6 years. If you believe any of this, I have a bridge over Hudson to sell you for cheap.
The city has a larger and wealtheir tax bases than many nations that regularly complete projects like this only larger within that time frame. When did we stop believing we can do things?
@TheLiamster it doesnt have to. China dn the Netherlands do similar projects at significantly larger scales for the low billions. New York has the tax base for it too. It just takes the political will to cut the red tape and root out the corruption that inflates the cost
It would be significantly more cost effective to build more public transit both in New York and across America that way people could comfortably live far away from the city and this reducing over crowding.
I want you to go on google maps, click on a train station on Long Island, and look at the current train lines. Then I want you to look at the buildings around the train station. You'll notice that public transit is not the issue. The issue is the lack of density in the suburbs and the lack of density around the train stations.
It's not so much that the sea levels are rising, as it is a fact that the eastern end of North America is slowly sinking into the Atlantic Ocean. After the last ice age (18,000 years ago approximately), once the glaciers over north-central North America began to retreat, the center of the continent has been slowly rising up, causing the Atlantic coast line to descend. Even if humans were to stop global warming in the near future, the Atlantic coast will still be sinking for the next several centuries.
It's important to keep in mind how wetlands are one of many important things that keep sea levels regulated on the land. And how it can help with controlling floods.
So, a city as big and important as NYC that sits on an island or peninsula, doesn't have any levees? This is crazy to me! The fact that they haven't been built something to protect this city is beyond me!
It's sad that NY's 3% rental vacancy rate sounds good compared to Sydney's 1.1%. In all seriousness, what would probably happen is they'll "revitalise" or in other word's gentrify more neighbourhoods to make room for newcomers.
In 1967 Montreal hosting the World Fair built two large islands on which over 100 pavilions were erected. So it can be done. It does cost, but it proved that with the proper planning it can be done
I would ask of this project? Is that if there is a provision in this idea of a new land mass for NYC Manhattan… A future safeguard against a high water surge during, earthquakes, unusual weather patterns, major Tropical storms,Hurricanes and yearly rise in water levels?
Why extend lower Manhattan island with wetlands just to add more housing? Why not extend the island with wetlands to add more flood plains to the island?
I wish land was worth $85,000 an acre. The average cost is around 43 million for an acre. The price commonly quoted is $1000 a square foot for Manhattan
I would recommend short 30 to 60 years leases to allow for renewal and adaptation in the city. No use adding more land if you do not have the power to renew and space to resolve problems of the day. Maybe in the future one might be short of spaces for commercial, you might add, or if you're short of a peculiar space you need in the city, well New York would have space.
You neglected to mention air bnb, which has converted many apartments into hotel rooms, further reducing the number of apartments on the market. Is it possible to put a moratorium on building more luxury apartments, i.e. "unaffordable housing"? We've built more than enough of them for now.
If you put a patch over the old wounds it’s not going to heal. The source has to be resolved first! Construct a surge barrier so expansions are possible and sea water is controlled.
Why don't they pump that money into widening the FDR from beginning to end & other roadways to improve traffic flow & help the congestion pricing issue?
Waste and not worth it. Plenty of boroughs (The Bronx , Queens, Brooklyn and Staten Island) to replace old buildings with new tall buildings. I can see that and save a lot of money 💰.
It would probably never happen, but what if New York unpaved most of it's streets and turned them into tree lined pedestrian/cyclist only (with exceptions for supply vehicles)? Might help a bit with flooding. Also shocked to hear there is only one transit connection between NY and NJ.

@15:59 1 acre of Manhattan is not 84k. 1.6 to 5 million seems to be the going rate, but I genuinely think 84 millions sounds more reasonable for Manhattan, then creating 150 billion in land value, for that 1.5 billion in tax revenue.
First, NYC is not just Manhattan. This piece is too narrowly focused. Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens, SI are NYC so focusing on just Manhattan skews the overall picture. Also NYC is not alone. There are NJ, LI and Westchester. (Add CT to a lesser degree). “Building affordable housing” Interesting. First, define affordable. Even one chooses to attempt this, the cost of housing involves many factors..a free market? Rates are really determined by what people are willing to pay not able to pay. Really, there’s no economic reasoning that says everyone has to live in Manhattan. Something Ed Koch noted. Second, Who is going to build this? And why? Finally, I am skeptical. The storm impact mitigation stuff is being used here to promote the land expansion idea. Sounds like some folks have figured a way to push a big idea using a smaller idea…and scare tactics.

Thousands of apartments sit empty for years. Tax landlords who keep buildings empty. Expanding the city will just create more expensive, empty apartments.
this project like you said seems unlikely. I’d also add futile. You can’t stop water. It will eventually overtake whatever it wants. The seas will only keep rising, cost to maintain will too. Just put up a no vacancy sign in Manhattan for 10 years, make improvements along the wetlands to prevent flooding. There are a lot of great cities in America underutilized. They are cheaper and less populated. There comes a point when a city cannot grow any bigger.
That is the dumbest idea on the planet! Whatever small island extension you build will quickly be too crowded. The problem is Housing as an Investment Asset. Stop allowing the rich to buy up and develop housing that is beyond the reach of people who work 40-50 hours a week in all types of jobs. Stop Housing as Investment and there will be no problem. America has KEYBOARD money. Right now the top 1% are accessing the Keyboard Money for damn near free and they use that interest free, rollover money to impoverish All The Rest.
Is stupid to expand the City as a New Yorker maybe we should fix the fact NYC is 80% empty since the pandemic and rents are still only high because of new rent control laws that landlords don’t want to get stuck at an unsustainable rates with all the new taxes but NY is very empty compared to what it was so many great places have been closing and are gone😥😓
Rents are high because interest rates are high, so no one is buying apts now, putting more pressure on the rental market. Meanwhile, many apartments worth millions sit empty year round.
@Kalamana The only empty apartments in NY are those that very few can afford or apartments bought strictly as an investment and no-one ever moves in, or at best is occupied a few weeks a year.
@@manonthemoog not true I know many great places and buildings but they are not listening tones of innovatory on the market because they need to keep prices high next year they are pushing a federal bill which will control all rent prices across the county and if you look at all the defaulted buildings from unpaid taxes they aren’t allowed to go to auction anymore as the city it’s been frozen lien auctions since the pandemic the city is taking them over, they want to tare down most of the old beautiful buildings of NY to make room for their smart city plan to change NYC skyline as it has been designated to be a new smart city by 2040 just like Maui and many other cities planned, access the county they want NY empty for their plan. The rental market isn’t what it was and places are being taken over by squatters, and most of the places on the public mls are renovated already the other places are not listed, rents are high and apartments to buy are still pricey but full buildings to buy are cheap even those at 80% capacity, i seen full skyscrapers sell cheap recently at 1/10 the cost to build it. NY is mostly empty and the rental market is being kept high but their is a lot more innovatory then what’s publicly listed.
If you dump that much soil and rock into the harbor won’t the soil and rock displace the water and rise the sea levels? If I throw rocks into a tub of water the water level will rise.
