Climate change is a global issue that influences worldwide. Its impacts are expected to be particularly severe in coastal cities, which are the center of discussion addressing this phenomenon. While it is impossible to ever fully eliminate risks from flooding, there are many measures available to manage and adapt to those risks. The Embarcadero, in-between the land and the water, is exposed to precipitation and river floods, and has to cope with the excess water from upland streams as well. The main goal of this graduation project is to find potential strategies to cope with flooding risks in dense urban waterfront, and to re-unit the city with its waterfront in many locations.
