You should search on Venice (Venezia). They closely monitor the
sea level there (because they have to). The city is sinking at the same
time as the sea is rising, so it's a little bit tricky. You will
see some creative engineering solutions to keep the water out too,
however, those run into political problems in the implementation.
I wrote up something about the water level on this list last Feb
"Venetian Scales of Man"
