Flood Form NYC Stormwater Resilience Platform Release

Flood Form NYC Stormwater Resilience Platform Release Building the Operating System for Private Property Flood Resilience Join us during Climate Week NYC for the public launch of Flood Form, a new stormwater resilience platform designed to help property owners, contractors, insurers, utilities, and municipalities understand and reduce flood risk at the property, block, and neighborhood scale. While billions of dollars have been invested in public infrastructure, the vast majority of flooding across New York City begins on private property—where homeowners, businesses, and institutions often lack the information, strategy, and coordinated implementation needed to act. Flood Form changes that. Drawing on hundreds of real-world stormwater retrofit projects across New York City, Flood Form combines property-specific flood exposure data, AI-assisted analysis, engineering expertise, and practical implementation strategies into a single platform that helps users move from understanding their flood risk to reducing it. During this event, attendees will: Experience the first public demonstration of the Flood Form platform. Learn how AI and geospatial data can identify property- and block-scale flood vulnerabilities. Explore how standardized flood assessments can dramatically reduce the cost and complexity of resilient retrofits. Hear the long-term vision for creating a private stormwater resilience industry capable of retrofitting thousands of buildings across New York City. Meet the interdisciplinary team of designers, engineers, technologists, and resilience practitioners building the next generation of climate adaptation tools. The discussion will also examine how private property resilience can complement public infrastructure investments, creating a scalable model for reducing combined sewer overflows, neighborhood flooding, infrastructure damage, and climate risk. As rainfall intensifies and flooding becomes more frequent, resilience can no longer depend on individual property owners navigating the problem alone. Flood Form offers a new operating model—one that connects data, design, financing, contractors, and long-term maintenance into a coordinated system for climate adaptation. Whether you are a homeowner, policymaker, investor, utility, engineer, landscape architect, contractor, insurer, or climate professional, this event will explore how New York can build a more resilient future—one property, one block, and one neighborhood at a time.
