North Fourth Street

One of the most flooded streets in Cambridge was North Fourth. It seemed like every house on the street had major flooding in the basement. These homes had doors to the basements, which provided the floodwater all the opportunity it needed to rush in and cause damage.

Here's some photos I took of the area:

This house is flooded from all sides, making in impassable except by boat:

In this photo you can see the water rushing out of the manhole cover back onto the street:
