Description
Night falls over the East River in Long Island City, New York, and a huge old gantry stands silhouetted against a brooding sky as if guarding the nearby park.
Gantry State Park, on the Hunters Point waterfront facing Manhattan, is named for the massive cranes, known as gantries, that were used to load and unload rail car floats onto railcars that used the spur track to the main LIRR tracks. From there goods could be transported to the Island or over the Hell Gate Bridge to northern New York and New England. Four of the gantries have been left in place as silent witnesses to Hunters Point’s industrial past.
