We like to have our fun but sometimes....
Four new plans have been sent to both state and federal engineers who are trying to "Storm proof Jersey" and we all have a vested interest in the best ways forward. More storms are going to come our way. Big ones. Now that we don't have The Professor anymore to count on to save us, we're going to need mortal minds to come together with ways to deflect, divert, and delay the waters. The article in the Star-Ledger offers some ideas right off the hop:
A sprawling mixed-use park in the Meadowlands to sop up storm surge. A robust stormwater management system in Hoboken. New design for iconic structures along the coast. Man-made barrier islands just off the Jersey Shore.
It's going to take a lot of bright ideas and maybe some lucky ones that all have to cobble together. A great read on a Friday as you daydream about the weekend.
