Livestream Series: 8th of October: AIANY Industrial Waterway Tour to Freshkills Park @ 9:45am

October 3, 2023 by Meghan

Go to where few have gone before! We’ll pass by the Statue of Liberty, then under the Bayonne Bridge, threading the NJ & Staten Island border through the Arthur Kill. We’ll see the industrial waterfront alive and thriving in Newark Bay, before we reach the world’s largest Land Reclamation Project – Freshkills Park. This 30-year project will result in the City’s largest public park. We will literally navigate into the Kill between the four capped giant mounds – home to 53 years of NYC garbage. Learn about how this environment is being recovered, reclaimed, and repurposed into a world renowned public park!
