Common Emergencies in Alexandria
Alexandria is a historic independent city on the Potomac River just south of DC. Old Town Alexandria floods from the Potomac during nor'easter tidal surge events — a regular occurrence that has worsened with sea level rise. Hunting Creek and Cameron Run create additional flood corridors through the city. Historic Old Town has 18th and 19th century architecture with limited moisture barrier protection — any water intrusion is expensive to remediate without compromising historic materials. The dense urban development creates significant stormwater concentration issues.
