How did the East Side Access tunnel project do during Sandy? I have seen no media reports about this huge project to connect LIRR to Grand Central Terminal.

Here is a recent article from the New York Post.  The short answer is that you are right; the project did okay.  http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/lirr_plan_on_track_3KDBCFhkReHbfYNFsJg3BI

the answer may be whether the flood gates for these new tunnels were installed and operative as soon as possible ss construction has progressed ?
