international first ever for controlled floods

East of the city center of Norwich (UK) lies the former industrial area Deal Ground. The 20-hectare former industrial area, which has been derelict for twenty years, will in the future be redeveloped into a residential area with about 700 single-family houses, apartments and a small shopping center.

The residential area has been designed in such a way that it can be partially flooded without causing any nuisance or damage.
