Welcome
"Who woulda thunk it?" asked Mayor Bloomberg as he unveiled the City's plan for The New York City Waterfalls on January 14th. The question gets at the heart of why this project is so exciting - not only is it bold, ambitious and potentially very beautiful, but it's also completely unexpected. Four man-made waterfalls rising from New York Harbor, each as high as the Statue of Liberty - probably not among the predictions of many New Yorkers for 2008. But the thought was thunk, and New York now finds itself on the verge of the most exciting public art project in recent memory.This site is dedicated to collecting and collating information on The New York City Waterfalls. We'll do our best to keep up-to-date on developments as they happen, and we welcome input from the public. Our Forum is a place where everyone can discuss the project, share news and opinions and comment on this site's content. The Photo Album will be a repository for images relating to the Waterfalls - all the images you see on this site are displayed there, and we welcome users to upload their own photos as the project develops. The Viewing Guide is a guide to the best ways to experience the Waterfalls - if you have suggestions for this page, please put them in the Forum and we'll add them to the page.
