By the time water reaches First Avenue, much less Third, most of Bayonne would be flooded. Ms. Hatreiter might want to check her topographical map.

Me thinks the whole kit-and-kaboodle shifts to the Pacific. And you're right, the winner(s) are the most open. That means LA and San Fran, as well as Seattle and possibly Portland, could do well. But me thinks Vancouver is best placed of all in NA. I also think Sydney can play in this game. One I didn't think of is Honolulu. Then anywhere in Asia proper that can be open. The Chinese cities will grow regardless. London stays in the game. Much of Europe has problems - quite sclerotic, as does much of the US proper. I hate to see NYC sink, but I can't see how it staves it off, with its geographic location and political tendencies of the US. Wil – Nicely said.

California ,(not London), in general is the source of many of the modern world's most important developments, from Hollywood to Silicon Valley, and L.A. is the third world gateway city into the USA . The California lifestyle literally breeds creativity...Next comes London ,the U.A.E, and all of the Asian cities mentioned above.
