Manhattan, New York
New York City’s historical birthplace, cultural identifier, and economic and administrative center – is Manhattan. Manhattan is the most densely populated borough in New York City – with a estimated 2017 population of 1,664,727 people living in an area of just 22.83 square miles. It doesn’t seem that unusual, but on business days, commuters will increase this statistic to 3.9 MILLION.
The borough consists mostly of Manhattan Island, bounded by the Hudson, East, and Harlem rivers; several small adjacent islands; and Marble Hill. Manhattan Island is divided into three informally bounded compartments aligned on its long axis: Midtown Manhattan, Lower Manhattan, and Upper Manhattan.
Water Damage in Manhattan
Many factors cause water damage in Manhattan. These include:
- Flooding
- Burst pipes
- Ruptured hoses
- Roof leakage
- Toilet overflows
- Flooded crawlspaces and attics
- Plumbing leakages
- Water heater leaks
- And other weather-related problems
Burst pipes are the most common causes of water damage in Manhattan. Drains and toilets that get backed up and blocked stir up undue pressure in the pipe. This will, in turn, cause the pipe to burst or leak. Old, rusty, and ill-maintained pipes are also more susceptible to leakages.
Additionally, water pipes burst due to changes in temperature. When it gets close to freezing, the water inside pipes will expand and freeze, causing an increase in pressure inside the pipe. When the pressure gets too high for the pipe to retain, the pipe ruptures.
