The Good Book talks about the man who builds his house upon the rock. Sand and wetlands are hardly commonsense foundation soil.

And at the first storm or hurican, it will sail into the sea

Does it bother you that your home looks like a northern bell Telephone substation?

Как у вас дела

And snakes maybe...lol I see alot of green grass

Untiol a Tsunami knocks it down

no future there

Must be an elite like mikehuckabee only they get permits to build on wetlands

Wow, imagine building a house on stilts near water! Why didn't someone think of this before?

There's a lot of room for tents full of bums between those concrete pillars. Where are they?

It's gorgeous! Now what can people with more normal, middle class or lower incomes do to build safer, higher, more climate-change-resistant housing?

The biggest polluter shouldn’t get away with polluting the earth. China should pay, carbontax on products from China would fund RenewableEnergy

CNN - DORIAN - ALABAMA, ALABAMA, ALABAMA, ALABAMA…:

Right now rich people will do fine when it comes to climate change, but it won't last.

1 THE OCEAN IS NOT RISING DAMN LIARS I LIVE ON THE COAST ITS NOT ANY HIGHER THEN 40 YEARS AGO

Looks like an airport built in the 70’s.

smart homeowner.

Is it legal to build on wetlands?

It's such a relief to know the rich will be the last to drown...

Mother Nature will eventually swipe that “anthill” off it’s meager foundations...Can’t wait to get the video from CNN. The Invasives’ will be washed away

They have a pool on a wetland. The video had nothing to do with protecting against rising waters from climate change. They literally said the views were better the higher the house was built 🤦‍♀️

How about this for a story “ ultra wealthy purchases wetland and donates it to conservation group to NEVER BE DEVELOPED” ? This is about GREEDY WEALTHY PEOPLE WHO WANT TO RELIEVE GUILT !

Homes in flood zones being built on stilts is revolutionary, how has nobody thought of this before?

Hope he owns a boat

Um yeah....when you build on wetlands to begin with..... This another CNN virtue signaling article?

Columbus egg...?

Why is this special? It is ugly and totaly out of place. Try this 2000 year old technic and see how that looks.

It's Beautiful! And invasive! Who do you have to pay to get a permit to build on wetlands?

Beautiful. I wish I lived in this house.

.

❤❤❤

I wish I had such a house and studio ..but I’m not sure if I would be happier..☺️

Bet the local wildlife loves the elevated encroachment & reflective glass.

Architects in Lagos should learn from this. Especially the Lekki peninsula.

*on

Seem its architect forgot to acknowledge the underwater power, obviously... StopUsingPlasticNOW MakeYourWorldSaneAgain SaneBodyMindSoul

If you believe this 'excellent' CCN 'news report' try this also.

Narrow River Road in Orient isnt exactly a foreign country..its just a wetland area on the east end of Long Island. How do I know this...I grew up on the North Fork. Seems to me that the East End has gotten even more pretentious than ever before.

Only the wealthy can develop on wetlands... PaveThePlanet

Yeah well it was 40 yrs too late to stop global warming. And now it is rapidly occurring. Despite the knowledge of havoc previous floods did we still have zero plans to move entire coastal cities. Fema will obviously not be enough.

Why build in a wetland and harm that ecosystem? Bonkers.

Palafita de luxo.

Ah, good to know, the wealthy have a plan.

Wonderful place to live....!!

Omg !!!! Now I'm scared . Where do I send my 50$ weekly allowance to the kind people in DC to make sure I'm safe !!!!!

Reeks of snobbery! 🤮

Maybe you shouldn’t build a house on wetlands....

rich folk prepping to survive what they've done to the rest of us

Where's the floating dock house with boat inside to match?

But I thought that if the sea levels rose, people were just going to stand there and drown. Who could have possibly guessed people would adapt and prepare for a very slowly changing climate?
