This is not correct. The sinking is measured, not modeled.

As usual, ignore the article and go straight to the actual paper.[0]

"Geodetic measurements show a mean subsidence rate of 1–2 mm/year across the city that is consistent with regional post-glacial deformation, though we find some areas of significantly greater subsidence rates."

"Much of lower Manhattan lies between 1 and 2 m in elevation above sea level, and measured subsidence from Global Positioning System (GPS) there is 2.1 mm/year (Boretti, 2021)."
