If they can engineer well enough to catch a ferring with a boat, pretty sure they can engineer around a hurricane. It’s a matter of money.
The amount of people that have misunderstood my OP is just amazing.
Yeah no shite. I am sure they can.
I was looking into specifics on how

They need a 20’ levee not a concrete wall, water will find a way under the concrete. Thats a really bad idea.

Fair point.
I'll blame my short attention span.

Look at all those giant condo buildings in Orange Beach
If you are willing to spend money, you can protect.
Specifics? A ton of dirt and concrete
Maybe they can take all the MS River dredged mud as a start.

Do you think they would just pour the concrete on the ground?
A 20' wall will have more than 20' worth of footers.

Natural gas processing and compressor stations were right there for hurricanes for decades.
Now tell me about the Kennedy Space Center.

oil and gas has been doing it for 100 years. hurricane comes > evac >come back once it passes > fix everything > go back to producing until another storm comes.

It will find a way under or bust through the concrete.

They do but this is an airport, roads, rocket launch site, offices, storage facilities, fuel production…
This is a massive site with all kinds of different infrastructure not “just” oil and gas refining.
There will be different challenges for such a site.

Don't know but VG made it happen and they don't have near the $$$ as Elon

They will lay all rockets on their side. Strap em down. Then fire them all off and the jet blast will blow wind/water away

Maybe like the LNG facility heading towards Venice. Build gigantic walls around it?
Posted on 8/29/26 at 9:10 am to fightin tigers
BINGO!!!!
BC (Myrtle Grove) LNG plant has flood wall around entire perimeter. Ms river and Barataria Bay already has water level higher than Hwy 23
Just Freshwater City will be at an unimaginably larger scale.

It boggles the mind how they are going to make all of that resistant to those things. Anyone with experience in engineering or with plants along that way have any insight?
Maybe they have taken control of the weather engineering?
