Yesterday we told you about the wood that the Brooklyn Bridge Park Development Corporation is salvaging from the demolition of the Cold Storage Warehouse and turning into benches for the park. Well, today we’ve got a photo of the benches themselves that have been installed already along the promenade and pathways of Pier 1; more will be fabricated and installed at Pier 6 as well. In addition, we have learned, salvaged timbers are being used to clad the gatehouses at entrances to Pier 1 and 6. Cool beans.
