Saint James (11780) is in the Town of Smithtown, on Suffolk's North Shore, close to Stony Brook, Northport and East Setauket. Sandy pushed 2 to 4 feet of water into low-lying areas around Suffolk's North Shore harbors, according to the National Weather Service.
On the bluffs above the Sound, storms and erosion put foundations and drainage under stress. Stone and block basements common on the North Shore allow more moisture through than newer construction. North Shore properties like those in Saint James often sit on sloping ground, which sends runoff toward foundations in heavy rain.
Knowing these local patterns helps crews in Saint James look in the right places first and avoid repeat problems.
