That's going to take a long, long time, though. Most of the buildings in the city will be flooded for days at best, maybe longer, barring some miracles in getting the pumping system working again. A lot of them will wind up structurally damaged beyond repair, or uninhabitable because of mold or other contamination. The reconstruction effort will have to be huge; I can't think of anything comparable other than maybe bombed-out German and Japanese cities after WWII.
