You know this is, I think, the first time I've ever heard anything about floodgates that wasn't a euphemism. :eek:

I think there's around 40 gates in this area.

The scary thing is that I saw on the news yesterday, a train derailed several of its cars, which wiped out one of the floodgates under the highrise.
