Gantry Plaza State Park

Posted on October 8, 2008February 13, 2020

Wave/wind/tide balanced pendulums in Gantry Plaza State Park, on the East River in Long Island City. These are very relaxing to watch. They move constantly with the waves, while shifting from horizontal at high tide to upright at low tide. Again, their paint job is inspired by our research into a maritime aesthetic of fishing bobbers and buoys.
