Past Alviso Floods

Due to Alviso's proximity and being a land mass that is below sea level it has a history of flooding. The most well known flood happened in the year 1983. This was a major flood that caused Alviso residents to evacuate with some being displaced for months or years. Yet there have been even more floods that have happened throughout the years that don't get much attention. With the new Alviso pump house and new levee building we hope flooding will be a thing of the past
