East River Waterfalls

A $15 million East River waterfalls project will be coming to New York in mid-July to cap off the Olafur Eliasson retrospective at MoMa.


The project will consist of four man-made waterfalls, ranging 90 to 120-foot tall, installed temporarily at four sites along the shores of Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Governors Island: by the Brooklyn anchorage of the Brooklyn Bridge, between Piers 4 and 5 in Brooklyn, in Lower Manhattan at Pier 35, and on the north shore of Governors Island.


The waterworks will flow from 7am to 10pm seven days a week, will be lit after sunset, and operate from July to October.
