San Jose Brookwood Neighborhood Flood
2/23/2017 (Permalink)
Out assessing damage in the Brookwood neighborhood of downtown San Jose today near 20th and E Williams Street. This area of the city experienced heavy flooding from Coyote Creek.
Even though Brookwood was built to be above the century high water mark, this flood surpassed this level.
Many residents are dealing with flooded crawlspaces, surface water intrusions, and roof leaks.
Flooding also affected the William Street Park area of San Jose. In the city, floodwaters submerged some residents’ cars and homes, and forced evacuations. And officials have warned residents of dangerously polluted floodwaters.
Floodwaters along Coyote Creek have continued to recede, but about 3,800 San Jose residents were still affected by mandatory evacuations early Thursday, according to officials.
