New York City Waterfalls
The New York City Waterfalls is a major work of public art that will be on display through October 13. The 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, operate from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily, except Tuesdays and Thursdays when they run from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. The Waterfalls are lit after sunset. Go to their website to find out free and inexpensive ways to view the waterfalls by land and by boat.
