"NORFOLK — As coastal cities wrestle with increasing threats from rising
waters, a nonprofit’s costly new headquarters offers an answer that is both
defiant and prescient.
The Elizabeth River Project’s $8.1 million headquarters on a flood plain
destined to be submerged in the coming decades as tides rise and storms
intensify has been designed to showcase strategies to stay longer in harm’s
way.
Eventually it will surrender to the inevitable: The environmental group has
agreed to demolish the building and abandon the site."
