The area is a flood plain, it is irresponsible and downright mental to allow for high density residential development on that land. It should have remained industrial or been converted to parkland. There is no excuse for this in today's age, you simply don't build housing on flood plains, no excuse for it.

BUT it will be a very nice development... Hope the city gets sued once the area floods.
But, but, folks love waterfront properties.......
