Description
Flush a toilet in Manhattan or Brooklyn and chances are you've just sent your regards to The Newtown Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant, New York City's largest. Located in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, along the south side of neglected Newtown Creek (a Superfund site with an oil spill three times that of the Exxon Valdez), the Newtown Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant epitomizes what can be achieved by progressive government working closely with local activists to harness the latest technology, namely odor elimination, outflow exceeding Clean Water Act standards and production of renewable biogas to heat 2,500 homes, but it's the award-winning architecture and design, courtesy New York City's Percent for Art program, that will drop your jaw -- especially those eight magnificent Digester Eggs. DIRECTED, PRODUCED AND EDITED BY - David Leitner MUSIC BY - Daron Murphy
