Coastal regions face an array of hazards to the built environment, ranging from storms and flooding to sea level rise, extreme heat, seismic activity, and human-induced tragedies. With climate change exacerbating the frequency and severity of these hazards, the need for resilient infrastructure has never been more pressing.
At NV5, we specialize in resilient design, crafting infrastructure that withstands the test of time while addressing these challenges head-on. Our long-term solutions not only bolster critical infrastructure but also foster community development, enrich neighborhoods, and attract local investment.
With a proven track record of safeguarding vital infrastructure in coastal cities like New York and Philadelphia, NV5 has led initiatives such as the extensive reconstruction of the Rockaways Boardwalk post-Superstorm Sandy. Presently, our endeavors include protecting vulnerable areas like the low-lying Red Hook section of Brooklyn and implementing the East Side Coastal Resiliency project, which aims to shield Manhattan’s east side from the impacts of climate change.
Utilizing state-of-the-art 3D design software, visualization tools, and geospatial data, NV5 delivers unparalleled accuracy and expertise in resilient infrastructure development. From mitigating flooding to combatting damage from salt and wind, our innovative approach ensures robust solutions that safeguard communities and their assets for generations to come. Join us in shaping a more resilient future, where coastal regions thrive in the face of adversity.
