Chelsea is an interesting area, not really a neighborhood, and the waterfront is still industrial although they have started renovating parts of it. This pier is part of a cluster of them at 25th Street, and is as close to a working pier as I've ever seen in New York. Those are trolley rails on the flooring, and the whole thing moves with the water like a ship, these beams make a creaking sound that can be rather alarming. Right next to this is another pier where luxury yachts are moored with a very nice gazebo that I didn't shoot because it was full of homeless people and their baggage who were ignoring the helicopters taking off from the heliport a few blocks away.

Very strong work, M.
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos as always, Maureen! Those timber beams look amazing... and the little boat? Looks to have been there a while with what looks like water in it? Warm wishes to you, Vxx
ReplyDeleteWhen I was there a few weeks ago, it was still cold enough for water to freeze and this little boat had ice in it, so I assume this water is that ice from back then!
