Chemical odor around the Gowanus Canal?

Categories: Odor

Around lunchtime today, there was a heavy chemical smell in the air around Union and Nevins street. I could smell it as far up as 4th Avenue. It was a sweet small, but nauseating. This is the second time this summer I’ve smelled the odor in that area. Does anyone know what it is?
