What Battery Park City does
to a washer.

After Sandy, the city and the Battery Park City Authority began the Lower Manhattan Coastal Resiliency project against storm surge and sea-level rise.

The northern part of the landfill was built up with sand dredged near the Ambrose Channel and stone from the digging of Water Tunnel No. 3.

Cellular cofferdams were built to hold the fill in place, and the landfill was complete by 1976.

Tower living

A washer in a tower stands above somebody else's ceiling, so a burst hose or a clogged drain is a problem for two households at once. Many buildings require a drain pan, braided supply hoses and shutoff valves within reach of the laundry closet before they will approve the machine at all.

Newer developments

Because a developer repeats one hookup across the neighborhood, swapping a washer rarely brings a plumbing surprise. Knowing whether the laundry sits on the slab or upstairs helps judge how much a leak could reach.

On the water

Near salt water, damp air keeps a front-loader's door boot and detergent drawer from ever drying out, and mildew arrives sooner than it would inland. Leaving the door ajar between loads and wiping the boot does more here than any cleaning cycle.
