Governors Island's NYC Waterfall turned on today

Riders on the NY Water Taxi's new free shuttle to Ikea in Brooklyn are getting more than they bargained for -- free waterfall previews.

The guys over at NY Water Taxi just sent NewYorkology a few pictures taken this morning of the Governors Island waterfall - now with water. It looks like artist Olafur Eliasson's team is running more tests in advance of the official June 26 debut of his NYC Waterfalls.

On Wednesday, the Water Taxi crew got a preview of the Brooklyn Heights waterfall turned on.

The Water Taxi begins its waterfalls cruises on June 26. Cruises will also be available from Circle Line downtown, Circle Line Sightseeing and Sail NYC.
