The Brooklyn waterfront where Brooklyn Bridge Park is intended to rise is changing very, very rapidly. This photo was dropped into the Gowanus Lounge Photo pool by heyheyamy and shows the site from the Brooklyn Bridge. The warehouses in the distance are still standing, but demolition is underway there too, and they won’t be there much longer either.
