New York 2140 (2017)

Manhattan's streets have become canals, yet people still maintain buildings, make a living and dispute who should benefit from valuable land. Following one apartment building gives the larger economic system a useful local address. This is a substantial, digressive novel for readers willing to spend time with the finance of adaptation as well as its physical infrastructure. The provocative question is how a city can survive a changed coastline while continuing to distribute security so unevenly.
