New York City Waterfalls

d360 · 07-03-2008, 04:38 PM

From June 26th through October 13th 2008 "The New York City Waterfalls" will be on display along the East River. The waterfalls are 90-120ft tall and the tallest waterfall is almost the height of the Statue of Liberty.

The New York City Waterfalls exhibition of four man-made waterfalls of monumental scale are on view on the shores of the New York waterfront: one on the Brooklyn anchorage of the Brooklyn Bridge; one on the Brooklyn Piers, between Piers 4 and 5 near the Brooklyn Heights Promenade; one in Lower Manhattan at Pier 35 north of the Manhattan Bridge; and one on the north shore of Governors Island. The Waterfalls, which have been designed to protect water quality and aquatic life, will operate from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily, except Tuesdays and Thursdays, when they will run from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. The New York City Waterfalls will be lit after sunset.

A temporary park has been specially created on Pier 1, a site of the future Brooklyn Bridge Park, for viewing this project. The Department of Transportation, in collaboration with the Public Art Fund, has created a bike route around the New York City Waterfalls, which is marked by waterfall icons on the streets and existing bike paths.

If your in New York City be sure to visit the Waterfalls.

Wow! I still have a lot of time to plan a visit so I might as well set it so I could see this man-made wonder they set up!

Looks good. I'd like to see a closer picture though. Do you have some during daylight? I'd love to see the falls like that.

I saw them,
very disappointing.
It looks like a water hose put on top of a kids erector set.
