What drying runs into in Manhattan
Serving Manhattan and the surrounding area, including East Campus, Northview.
Local housing stock
Roughly 14,295 of Manhattan's 24,403 homes went up before 1990, putting the median build year at 1983; what dries in place and what comes out follows from that. Around a median of 1983 but with a considerable older stock beneath it, a good share of the cellars are built from local limestone laid up with mortar joints rather than poured or blocked, and a stone wall of that kind holds water in its joints and in the stone itself.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 35.77 inches, 5.47 of them in June, against a warm season that peaks at 80 degrees in July; both figures recorded at MANHATTAN, 1.4 miles away. June is the wettest month at close to five and a half inches of a thirty-six inch year and five months average a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain lands in early summer and the building has a long cold season behind it; stone that took water in June is drying into warm air with very little help.
How water losses tend to end in Manhattan
- Stone and mortar joints holding water well below the surface, so the wall keeps releasing long after its face reads dry
- Uneven stone faces that cannot be metered reliably, so the wall is judged by what it gives back over time rather than by a reading
- Finishes fixed to that stone, so anything fastened against it is wet from the wall side regardless of the room
