Tides
Sea Level Rise • Used range of “likely” to “possible” estimated sea level rise for planning • 2050: 1-2 ft. increase • 2100: 3-6 ft. increase (US NCA, 2013) • Estimates keep going up, not down. Source: US National Climate Assessment, 2013
Today’s High Tide + 2.5 ft.
Today’s High Tide + 5.0 ft. Could flood Daily High Current Annual Tide by 2100 nearly 7% of 100-Year Flood by 2050 Boston Flood

Today’s High Tide + 7.5 ft. Could Flood Annual 100-Year Over 30% Flood by Flood around of Boston 2100 2050
What Floods at High Tide + 7.5?
Boston Living With Water Design Competition • Launched October 29 th at the ABX conference after free design charrette. • Seeks Living with Water design solutions for three real sites in Boston. • Cosponsored by City, BRA, BSA and TBHA. • www.BostonLivingwithWater.org
Summary of Findings • Today’s 100 -year flood could be 2050’s annual flood and 2100’s high tide. • Boston will be different. It doesn’t have to be worse. • Preventing flood damage will cost money. Make it count by solving other problems at the same time.
