NYC INSTALLS MOVEABLE FLOOD GATE ON LOWER EAST SIDE

Commissioner Thomas Foley of the NYC Department of Design and Construction (DDC) announced that the first massive gate that will help protect the Lower East Side from future coastal flooding was installed Feb. 24 as part of the $1.45 billion East Side Coastal Resiliency project.

The 42-ft. long, 10-ft. high, 32,000-lb. gate is the first of 18 movable flood gates that will eventually be installed along the 2.4-mi. project.

“Swinging and rolling gates are a critical design element of East Side Coastal Resiliency and allow for waterfront access while giving the city the flexibility to seal off areas before a future coastal storm or flood event,” said DDC Commissioner Thomas Foley. “We look forward to completing flood protection for 110,000 residents and to the open space and recreation improvements that are included in ESCR.”

The gate installed was manufactured by Linita Design & Mfg. Corp. in Lackawanna, N.Y. The $1.45 billion ESCR project is projected to be completed in 2026.

“East Side Coastal Resiliency will provide integrated flood protection for the surrounding community, and this movable gate is a significant step in making that happen. We continue to provide recreational resources and plant trees in the neighborhood while resilient park improvements are underway,” said NYC Parks Acting Commissioner Liam Kavanagh.

ESCR will create an integrated 2.4-mi. system of raised parkland, floodwalls, berms and movable flood gates to create a continuous line of protection against sea level rise and the growing threat of stronger, more severe coastal storms worsened by climate change. The project has been designed to improve waterfront access through reconstructed bridges and entry points and also will upgrade existing sewer systems to capture and manage precipitation during storms.

Construction of ESCR began in November 2020 at Asser Levy Playground, with major construction beginning in April 2021. In June 2021, the city announced almost $140 million of additional funding to add more community amenities as part of ESCR, including new public restrooms, improvements to a park amphitheater and, in a separate capital project, $129 million for the new flyover bridge for the Manhattan Greenway. Approximately 650-ft. of the project’s flood wall has been completed.

DDC, in coordination with the NYC Department of Transportation for traffic, pedestrian and bike lane detours, issues regular advisories to the community on progress and where future work will take place. DDC also has two full-time Community Construction Liaisons (CCL) for the East River Park section of ESCR. CCL Joyce Xin, who is bilingual and fluent in Mandarin Chinese, will keep the neighborhood apprised of construction progress and can arrange special requests. Xin works on-site and is directly accessible to the public at 929/844-0408 or by email at ESCRCCL1@ddccr.com.

Sonia Quinones, who is fluent in Spanish, will further provide updates to the community. She can be reached at 347/628-8724 and via email also at ESCRCCL1@ddccr.com. Residents south of East 15th Street wishing to receive notifications about construction activities can reach out to be placed on the distribution list.

East Side Coastal Resiliency will use a series of berms, flood walls, flood gates and raised parklands to create a continuous 2.4-mi. barrier to protect 110,000 residents of the Lower East Side from future coastal flooding.

Residents interested in receiving project updates for areas north of East 15th Street can contact her to be added to the public distribution list for that area. The level of flood protection provided by ESCR is equal to the region’s “worst-case” anticipated 100-year storm in 2050, based on future climate change projections produced by the New York City Panel on

The project uses an adaptive design that can accommodate the addition of two more feet of elevation throughout the project area should sea levels in the coming decades rise faster than current projections anticipate. The city is sponsoring a “Call for Student and Community Art” for students and local artists to submit artwork for display on banners on the fencing surrounding ESCR construction. Students whose works are selected for display will receive a $300 award while local artists will receive $1,000. All students who submitted artwork will receive a Certificate of Participation.
