Among Hurricane Harvey's casualties was Harris County's jury assembly plaza. The 85% underground facility is connected to four different courthouses via tunnels. There was discussion about whether rebuilding was worth it. But, in the end, FEMA covered most of the cost and the refurbishment included "flood proof" features like easily hosed down seating and new cement block walls instead of sheetrock. The plaza finally reopened to jury selection 4 1/2 years after the historic flood. I used the station's drone during my tour to help tell the story.
