The Financial District and Seaport Climate Resilience Master Plan is a shared City-community vision for a resilient 21st-century waterfront.
This vision responds to the increasing hazards posed by climate change, while transforming the waterfront to better serve all New Yorkers
for generations.
Senior leaders across key City agencies involved in extreme weather response came together, along with outside experts on climate
change and resiliency, to compile a new set of protocols and policies that will protect our city.
The Climate Resiliency Guidelines provide step-by-step instructions to go beyond building code and standards, which are informed with historic climate data by also looking to specific, forward-looking climate data for use in the design of City facilities.
