New York City is slowly sinking under the immense load of its urban infrastructure. With more than one million buildings spread across its five boroughs, the city ranks among the heaviest urban areas on the planet. Researchers estimate that these structures collectively weigh about 1.68 trillion pounds (762 billion kilograms), roughly the same as 1.9 million fully loaded Boeing 747 aircraft.
This enormous mass is contributing to a geological process called subsidence, in which land gradually sinks over time. On average, New York City is subsiding at a rate of 1 to 2 millimeters (0.04 to 0.08 inches) per year, with some neighborhoods experiencing faster rates of up to 4.5 millimeters (0.18 inches) annually.
While the buildings play a significant role, they are not the only factor. Many areas rest on soft soils, clay layers, or artificial fill that compress more readily under pressure. Additional influences include groundwater fluctuations and the long-term effects of post-glacial rebound from the last Ice Age.
Individually, these small annual shifts may seem minor. However, when combined with rising sea levels, which are increasing faster than the global average around New York β the relative risk of flooding grows steadily. Low-lying coastal neighborhoods, infrastructure, transportation networks, and waterfront areas are particularly vulnerable.
New York is not unique in this regard. Many major global cities, including Jakarta, Shanghai, Mexico City, and parts of Tokyo, are also experiencing notable subsidence.
Although the process occurs too slowly for daily notice, its cumulative effects over decades can be substantial. New Yorkβs iconic skyscrapers are not at risk of sudden collapse, and the city faces no imminent disappearance. Still, this phenomenon serves as a compelling reminder that even the worldβs greatest metropolises remain subject to the slow, powerful forces of geology.

Since 2021, the top five wide receivers on each team in the NFC East have gone over 100 yards against the #Cowboys just five times.
For perspective, CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens went over 100 yards four times against NFC East opponents in 2025 alone.
If Christian Parker can re-tool the secondary and elevate it from last year, does any WR core in the division scare you right now?
