Abstract

The proximity to the water caracterizes the emergence of settlements which would become cities. Today, New York’s landscape runs the risk of being hit - and destroyed - because of climate changes. From the lack of water, to the rise of sea levels, and the advent of hurricanes, such as Sandy which extended through out Unites State's east coast, natural disasters became increasingly more frequent. Those are responsible for the expulsions in the micro localities of the city and they put in evidence the necessity of new processes of urban planning that combine space, social practices and technological and budgetary viability. The aspects of participatory projects like The Big U may present solutions.
