Even in NYC there remain some houses built over water and on stilts (wooden pilings). Some of those structures have survived hurricanes, icings and all else.
Uptown ping.
A little catastrophe and a little history.

We’re due for a big 9.0 here on the west coast, possible in my life time ( but that might be pushing it a little).
We have about 20 minutes between the big shake, 5 minutes of 9.0, and when the tsunami hits. My home is safe but we ride the beach on horse back and I subconscienciously think, 20 minutes to the parking lot or high sand hill at full gallop.
