My guess is it would take some time. But you weigh that against how long you expect the City to last, and time becomes a non-issue. Cost is another issue, but consider how much these storm surges cost in damage and expense (its already in the billions), and it has less relevance. There's just the matter of coming up with the money. It will have to be from combined sources, federal, state, city, even some private funding. But it's all just talk now.
