...WATERFALLS IN NEW YORK!...
by Pierre Baltadano
Bloomberg News is reporting that New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg has announced plans to bring waterfalls to the East River off of Lower Manhattan, beginning around mid-Julyand ending around mid-October. The waterfalls will be created by famed artist Olafur Eliasson, who's well known for his exhibit, The Weather Project, which was a large-scale installation of a sun-like object that was installed in 2003 at the Tate Modern in London, and the newly constructed Serpentine Gallery Pavillion (2007).
The New York City Waterfalls will consist of four illuminated waterfalls, ranging from 90-120 ft, that will be placed at different locations, one by the Brooklyn Bridge, another by Governor's Island, and the other two locations have not been announced. They will also be environmentally conscious of the native wildlife and pumped using the power of the water current.
