One more thing about the NYC flooding. It's all over now. It's been over for hours. The water drains away. There is somewhere for it to go it just can't get there fast enough and gets backed up in bad places.
This is why the answer is simple:
1. Reduce hard surfaces, have more green spaces that drain slowly.
2. Surface some of the natural brooks and streams. Then they can expand massively in heavy rain fall.
3. Seriously get rid of some of the parking lots, green more roofs.
We can do this.
