Abstract
The design consists of two parts. The first part is mainly about why and how to build a seawall in Embarcadero district. The second part is how to create attractive waterfront activities and how to connect the city, the seawall, and the floating area as a whole. Each design decision is a result of research. The process of the design is also a way of research. Building a seawall and creating floating areas in Embarcadero is the best decisions dealing with the sea-level rise based on my site researchs.
