East River Industrial Heritage Trail in the works
An "East River Industrial Heritage Trail" is in the works to highlight "points of historical and industrial interest along the East River that, when linked together, will help tell the story of not only the East River's, but also New York City's industrial past."
Among the sites slated for the trail is the 1905 Long Island City Power House, which is facing demolition.
The project is the work of the Metropolitan Waterfront Alliance and the Roebling Chapter of the Society for Industrial Archaeology. (Link found via Sea Level: New York.)
