END (Future)

October 16, 2021 @ 11:50 am - 12:00 pm

- Free

Our collective hearts will not be alone; weedy plants will help us at low-tide. With the weedy plants, we will create questions for the NYC Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and members of the City Council Subcommittee on Zoning and Franchises to consider as they plan for the Gowanus Canal CSO Retention Tank on Oh-4 site, which bends west near the 4th street tuning basin. We will do this collectively through movement-oral listening facilitated by weedy plants, andrea haenggi, and Rachel Cole. We ask you to come to the last street end in Gowanus (2nd avenue and 5th street) on Oct 16th at 11:50am so you can hear the fullness of the edge at low tide.

This event is the second of a series of four encounters that involve transforming an ecologically disturbed and contested public space through different kinds of “use.” Documentation produced by participants during / through each of the encounters will be integrated into a land use intervention library.
