The Waterfront Alliance, started out as a project of The Municipal Art Society of New York and has blossomed into a network of over 900 organizations raising the social consciousness regarding the NY/NJ Harbor. Since its inception, the organization has proven to be a strong proponent for educating the public of the importance of the community shared waterway.
Leading up to this year’s annual Waterfront Conference on May 12th, the Waterfront Alliance will be hosting a series of weekly discussions titled “Deep Dives.” The series began on March 30th with “Floating Possibilities: The value of art at underutilized waterfronts.” The series of talks, hosted by Cornell Architecture Art Planning, will continue every Wednesday evening up to May 4th from 6-9pm on the 20th floor of 26 Broadway. Some of the future “Deep Dives” discussions will pertain to data gathering and planning, defining the public access to the waterway and the Citywide Ferry Service.
The series is free and open to the public but space is limited. To attend the next discussion on April 6th, register here .
