Dumbo NYC

Notes from the DUMBO, Brooklyn NY neighborhood


 

Empire Fulton Ferry State Park

Brooklyn Bridge

It’s unfair to compare Dumbo Then and Now photos for the not-yet-finished Empire-Fulton Ferry State Park, but here are some interim photos of the park. The park is being worked on to improve drainage, add park furnishings, lighting, and of course concerns by some with the renovation of the park include the removal of the trees. It looks like the two largest trees have been spared, but the trees near the point of the boardwalk and others in the park have been cut down.

    It's the city's way of paying homage to Two Trees.
