The New York Metropolitan area will soon see a massive, $335 million berm along Manhattan’s Lower East Side

The Big U is a protective system around Manhattan, driven by the needs and concerns of its communities. Stretching from West 57th street south to The Battery and up to East 42th street, the Big U protects 10 continuous miles of low-lying geography that comprise an incredibly dense, vibrant, and vulnerable urban area.

They shouldn't live in such a low-lying area.
