Yesterday morning the Center for the Urban Environment sponsored a Water Taxi tour of the Gowanus Canal. The ride was an incredible opportunity to see Gowanus landmarks like the canal’s series of bridges and the fallow Whole Foods site from a new vantage point. Dan Wiley, Community Coordinator for Congresswoman Nydia Velázquez, was the guide. Wildlife sightings included a jellyfish, an egret, and a canal-side photo shoot. The Center for the Urban Environment has Urban Tours almost every weekend, and the next one involving a Water Taxi will be of the Newtown Creek.
