There's like a bajillion of these in Miami and Orlando but those make sense there. Like they actually connect to the ocean through some canals.
The MacDaddy of them all is Cape Coral. The American Venice.
The bigger problem with those is that many were not developed with water and sewer systems, instead each lot has its own septic system and water well. These areas are actually too dense to support every home doing that, so people have started to run out of water. Now cities like Cape Coral are spending a lot of money to bring sanitary sewer and water to every lot.
Fuck me I didnt sven think about how utilities would work on these layouts. They don't.
“Sense” in that they’re actually close to sea level, maybe, but can you get ~~flood~~ rising sea levels insurance? Or will they all be literally underwater in a decade?
This will not be a problem as they can simply sell their properties to Aquaman.
Everyone know Aquaman is a slumlord who pays rock bottom prices and just lets the places rot.
I think started mostly of a drainage thing. Southern Florida is fucked regardless of those canals. The peninsula is like karst so they can't even build a dike like New Orleans.
Sooo, not just at high risk thanks to climate change but also poisoning the ocean too? Very cool.
Don't worry, the ocean is poisoning us back with salt water intrusion into the aquifers.
What exactly is causing that salt water intrusion? There have always been brackish regions, are they perhaps somehow intruding further inland than they used to?
Perhaps it’s more accurate to say we’re poisoning ourselves?
Poseidon, obviously.
