Frequently asked questions
The water looks calm off the slips. What fills a waterfront cellar in August?
The mill slips were dumped into the tide, and the fill under them holds a table the calm surface never shows. Quassaick Creek arrives through the same ground from the hillside side, so an August cell has nowhere to drop once it lands. A 1938 cellar on that fill wets from below and from the creek at once, and the filled industrial ground weeps on a fair day regardless.
The Hudson looks calm. Why is the waterfront cellar still damp?
Tide and fill, not current. The slips were dumped into the river, and a high Hudson already sits in that ground. August rain then has nowhere to discharge. A calm surface is not a low table on this waterfront.
The house is up the hill, not on the slips. Is the Quassaick still involved?
As a flood, no. As the drain, yes. Hill till weeps into the Quassaick's hollow, and an August cell keeps the uphill wall wet long after the waterfront has receded. The creek job is the slips. The seepage job is the cut.
