Beacon sits in the interior mid-Hudson Valley, with no direct hurricane-landfall exposure, though it shares the broader region's indirect hurricane-remnant flood risk.
A real Hudson River location's flood-zone considerations
Beacon sits directly on the Hudson River, with Dia:Beacon's own museum building sitting explicitly on the riverbank -- confirm current, address-specific FEMA flood-zone status directly for riverfront or low-lying properties.
