The Waterfalls Start Falling

At 7 a.m. this morning, the Olafur Eliasson-designed waterfalls started cascading at four locations around the city. We’ve got photos here of two: The one under the Brooklyn Bridge (shot from the new Pop-Up Park—more on that later) and the one between piers 4 and 5. (The other two are on Governor’s Island and Pier 35 in Manhattan.) Wish we’d had a boat to go out in this morning! Update: Gothamist has a short video (with nice sound) posted here.
