They are everywhere by the water. They must have some serious pumps in

Maybe you don't understand what a surge is. No pump in the world is
going to stop the ocean if the entrances to that garage go under.
Doors won't do much either.
You only have to look at what happened to the subways in lower
Manhattan to see that. That was not a direct hit, nor actually even a
hurricane.

Well, it was a hurricane right up until it wasn't. My oldest son was
living in an apartment building in lower Manhattan about 200 yards
from the river. They had water halfway up the elevator doors in the
lobby of his building. He normally kept his car in a nearby
underground garage but got it out just in time. All of the remaining
cars were totaled. It was close to a month before they got power and
elevator service restored, not much fun on the 31st floor.
