Barge Party!

DER Task Force

Come hang on a off-grid barge in Red Hook!

701 Columbia St

On Saturday 8/13, DER Task Force will be hosted by the <a href="https://www.reticenter.org/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">RETI Center</a> and <a href="https://fluxtailor.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Flux Tailor</a> at the Blue City Barge in Red Hook, Brooklyn. Field Station: Barge is an experimental learning site for water science, waste reduction, sustainable building, and ecosystem restoration that is the initial step for Blue City, a 4.5 acre living, floating lab for sustainable industry hosted by the Gowanus Bay Terminal.Expect the usual DERTF crew, but we&#x27;ll also be joined by RETI Center&#x27;s awesome community, and a bunch of others as well. Bring friends and lets party!Drinks and snacks will be provided, but feel free to bring your own too. A group of us plan to bop around Red Hook after as well if you&#x27;re up for more.A few notes:<ul><li>wear real shoes -- the barge&#x27;s deck is a little rusty and uneven</li><li>keep in mind it&#x27;s usually a little cooler on the barge than on land</li><li>unfortunately the barge is not currently wheelchair accessible, so let us know if you have accessibility needs</li></ul>Directions:The barge is located on the Columbia Street pier, behind the Ikea parking lot and bus depot. If starting your journey in Brooklyn, you can take the B57 or B61 that stops at Ikea. From Manhattan, you can take the free Ikea Ferry. Revel mopeds work well too!
