Challenges & Solutions
An earthquake rocked the entire east coast of the United States and then another rarity, Hurricane Irene, pummeled the area with over a foot of rain helping to create the wettest year on record for the area. A heavily populated existing neighborhood and a high-density site created a congested area for construction and material shortage.
