Local housing stock
Of roughly 30,080 housing units, about 27,188 were finished in 1989 or earlier, which puts the median construction year at 1953. Brick apartments and wood houses on full basements, median 1953, 90.4 percent pre-1990, packed onto the two river benches and the ridge between them.
Climate & seasonal risk
August alone accounts for 9.7 percent of the 49.85 inches this area sees in an average year, on 1991–2020 normals recorded 5.4 miles away at BRONX. August's 4.82 inches falls as late-summer storms on a city split by two parkways. On the benches that rain meets a river table; on the ridge it sheds into downhill basements. A remnant then drives rain sideways into masonry that sheds vertical water perfectly well.
