Waterfalls Being Built Up

April 3rd, 2008

Workers have started building a 110 foot high steel scaffolding for one of Olafur Eliasson’s “Waterfalls,” which is expected to start pumping river water (using green energy). One waterfall will be placed under the Brooklyn Bridge for three months beginning in mid-July.

    7:30 am this morning three large flatbed trucks unloaded all the materials for the Brooklyn Bridge installation at the old OEM building on Old Dock St. So we should also expect to construction start soon on this side of the river.
