PortSide NewYork is a waterfront focused non-profit located on Pier 11, Atlantic Basin next to the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal in Red Hook, Brooklyn. We are a living lab for better urban waterways. Our focus is the water part of the WATERfront, the BLUEspace, NYC's Sixth Borough. Our programs, services and advocacy show how to combine the working waterfront, public access and community development. Our mobile program unit, the historic ship MARY A. WHALEN, holds our offices and is the site of many of our programs. Our education, culture, workforce development and neighborhood promotion programs - all on a water theme - bring the communities ashore and afloat together, for the benefit of all.Building on our hurricane Sandy recovery work - which won us an award from the White House award and honors from the NYS Senate - PortSide is developing flood preparedness and resiliency programs and will curate and house a resiliency center.
