Wonder how often it will flood
the bigger issue will be excavating the area during construction. the water table is very high alongside the river like that.

When they dug the foundations for the LNB building (whatever it's called now) in downtown BR, they froze the area with liquid nitrogen. That's what a professor told us anyway.
