Only Bad Things Come From Building on the Beach

"My father, who retired in 1975, was chief of the North Atlantic Division of the Army Corps of Engineers. More than 40 years ago, he said to me that nobody should be allowed to own land on the coastline. He thought that the beaches should be accessible to everyone and that it was dangerous to build by the water." - excerpt from letter to the NY Times.
