Once working docks which were abandoned for years, this area became a concrete wasteland. But incredible vision, hard work and dedication has turned this forgotten waterfront into an amazing ecosystem, recreation park, beach and foodie destination. Join us as we explore the many, many facets of this urban oasis nestled between the two most icon bridges in the city.
