"Lots of buildings in NYC suffer from this problem. I worked at a church on East 74th Street and the basement would often flood even with just a little bit of rain. Took a look at a map similar to this one and it showed an old creek winding its way toward the East River along 74th Street and passing right through what would in the 1880s become the church basement."?anon [A Little River Runs Through It]
