Case Study: Waterfront Resilience

To further incentives for resilience in waterfront development, Waterfront Alliance has created Waterfront Edge Design Guidelines (WEDG), a national rating system and set of guidelines developed to create resilient, ecological, and accessible assets along the water’s edge. This case study demonstrates that once constructed and operational, designing beyond code for resilience offers a 4:1 benefit-cost ratio and 6:1 for resilience against storm surge on a continuous basis for the new, often improved useful life of the waterfront asset.  Download the Case Study below.
