Brooklyn Bridge Park unveils kayak dock
Brooklyn Bridge Park is unveiling its newest nifty amenity: A floating dock for kayaks.
The dock, attached by a gangplank to Pier 2, will shorten wait times for park visitors who join in on the free kayaking sessions offered during the summertime.
Park honchos and volunteers, elected officials and community members will gather Saturday to mark the official opening of the Community Eco Dock, which was paid for with $170,000 in discretionary capital funding obtained by City Councilman Steve Levin (D-Brooklyn Heights, DUMBO, Downtown Brooklyn) and the Metropolitan Waterfront Alliance.
