Sea levels have risen about 130m from 20,000 years ago All that water came from, of course, ice that melted. The New York City Parks Dept says that NYC was under as much as 1000 feet of ice[1] during the most recent ice age. Yeah, ice as high as the top of the old World Trade Center twin towers! Upstate New York (the Adirondacks) was under 5000 feet of ice. Something to keep in mind as we fret about a 15-foot storm surge.
