[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good feedback. Thank you. I think I have 20 years before I need to worry about stairs, but I hadn't even noticed the boat slip, and don't want it. I'll continue looking. Just not loving the idea of an apartment.[/quote] [b] If you’re looking in Old Town, be wary of Union Street. The first few blocks up from the waterfront are built on fill and flood pretty regularly. [/b]Look at the water level measure carved into the Torpedo Factory. The elevation rises pretty quickly, so anything more than a couple blocks up is fine. [/quote] This. I know a friend just two blocks from your property that was flooded out a few years back (I suspect you can find that flood in WaPO). It was a very serious deal at the time. His house was destroyed in the bottom levels (where he also had a business). Ask for flood maps. do your research. Talk to all of the old-timer residents about flooding, etc.[/quote]
