new york city zip code Sink or Swim Part 1 of 4: Principles and Priorities for Waterfront Restoration in a Post-Sandy Era

On December 13, 2012, MAS and the Center for Urban Real Estate (CURE.) at Columbia University teamed up to host: New York City Sink or Swim: Principles and Priorities for Waterfront Restoration in a Post-Sandy Era. The half-day conference was held at the Museum of Jewish Heritage, located in Lower Manhattan, and brought together the leading experts in costal resilience from both New York City and the Netherlands to discuss and debate how the New York metropolitan region can recover from Hurricane Sandy.

Sink or Swim included keynote presentations from US Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Shaun Donovan and US Secretary of the Department of the Interior Ken Salazar. Secretary Donovan made a plea for a more thoughtful planning process that takes a critical look at how we rebuild smartly and strategically, while Secretary Salazar spoke to the importance of individuals being patient as the parks and historic sites in the New York Harbor begin to rebuild. The Dutch perspective came from Jos van Alphen, Special Advisor to the Netherlands' Delta Commission, who provided the audience with an overview of strategies employed by the Dutch to secure their waterfront open spaces from risks associated with natural disasters.

One of the key points made repeatedly was that the leadership for our region's response to climate change, and our attempts to improve our resilience, must come from our own city officials highlighting priorities and providing needed direction to state and federal officials.
