Far Rockaway Concrete House
Far Rockaway, New York
New Construction of a Concrete House
This house is in Far Rockaway, NY, an area that was heavily affected by Super Storm Sandy. The original house was badly damaged and subsequently torn down. The property was developed with the Build It Back Program in New York. The house is elevated as a flood zone design feature. The idea was to build a house that would be sustainable and survive a future flood. It is built with concrete for maximum durability. The house is poured-in-place concrete. The concrete was left exposed and raw. Check out a blog post of ours to learn more about concrete houses.
