I didn’t say NYC would be flooded, I said it would have significantly more sandy-like events (where the storm surge was already 3-4m in battery park city).[1]
And I don’t know how much you know about tides given your above comment, but starting out a meter higher usually has nonlinear effects on how far inland waves can travel.

Don't forget Sandy was a Category 1 hurricane whose eye made landfall in Southern New Jersey. It was by no means a worst case scenario.
You can minimize climate change all you want, but maybe do some research first?
