Success Stories
Get Our Flood Mitigation and Preparation Toolkit!
Though Hurricane Ida touched our community more than a year ago, its impacts are still felt today – and extreme flooding will continue to affect our riverfront neighborhood in the years and decades to come. That is why the East Falls Development Corporation is proud to share our new flood preparation and mitigation toolkit.
This toolkit is also just the beginning of the East Falls Development Corporation’s flood mitigation work. In 2022, we were proud to receive funding from the Pennsylvania Department of Community and Economic Development, along with our friends and partners at the Manayunk Development Corporation, to conduct a flood preparation planning process. Stay tuned for updates and ways to get involved with this critical study.
