Fort Tilden Shore Road- -Shoreline Resiliency

Gateway National Recreation Area » Fort Tilden Shore Road- -Shoreline Resiliency » Document List

Hurricane Sandy caused physical changes to the Fort Tilden shoreline and beach area, creating a new environment with safety, access, and resource questions that need to be addressed.

The purpose of this project is to understand the potential impacts from future storm events on natural and cultural resources, infrastructure, and the safety of surrounding communities, and use this to guide the siting and design of Shore Road, address safety in response to the exposed bulkhead, as well as inform the consideration of future coastal protection measures.
