Gowanus Dinosaurs

Do you see the Dinosaurs? Find the Tyrannosaurus Rex, Apatosaurus, and a crocodile. Tell me if you find more! It’s ironic that oil formed dinosaurs, isn’t it?

Now designated a Superfund site, the Gowanus Canal has a beauty that Mark D Phillips has captured in its abandonment, grunginess, and now its resurgence.

The oil still floats atop the water, joined by canoes and paddle boards. There are times when the colorful sheen stretches from bulkhead to bulkhead at the Ninth Street Bridge, creating a mosaic that resembles some of Tiffany’s finest stained glass. When the water is calm, the city reflects across its mirrored surface.
