Park Progress: Thirty-Fourth Report
As seen from the east tower of the Brooklyn Bridge this morning (Monday, November 30), Pier 1’s western side is almost completely sodded. What is that crater near the lower left of the photo, just above the truck? The maps posted on the Promenade don’t give a clue. More photos and text after the jump. Removal of the deck from the south end of Pier 1 is now complete, and a seawall is being constructed along the shoreline. Demolition of the warehouse buildings inland from Pier 1 continues. Here’s another view of the demolition work underway, this as seen from Columbia Heights across from the Harry Chapin Playground. There’s still lots of activity around Pier 6, but it doesn’t look as near to completion as Pier 1.
