  • New York's Post Industrial Waterfront: a Lesson in Environmental Gentrification and Environmental Inequality
    New York's Post Industrial Waterfront: A Lesson in Environmental Gentrification and Environmental Inequality Kara Murphy Schlichting Department of History, Queens College, City University of New York In 2011, Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced that New York City had six boroughs: Manhattan, the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, of course, but he counted the city’s 520-mile long waterfront as well. Bloomberg encouraged New Yorkers to imagine this space as a single unit of public space (Barrett 2016; New York City Department of Planning 2011). In the twenty-first century, the industrial past had finally given way to a reconfigured shoreline of green amenities. Figure 1. The East River at Brooklyn Bridge Park, 2019. Source: Caroline Culler, “View of Brooklyn Bridge Park from Manhattan Bridge,” photograph, 28 June 2019. (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:View_of_Brooklyn_Bridge_Park_from_Manhat tan_Bridge.jpg) But what of the city’s postindustrial waterfronts that have not gentrified? The South Bronx shoreline along the Harlem River is one such space. While Bloomberg’s administration courted environmental gentrification on the East River waterfronts of Queens and Brooklyn, the South Bronx did not experience a similar transformation. The concept of political ecology posits that there is an essential relationship between political, economic, and social factors and environmental issues. Building on this framework, I examine environmental gentrification, or the lack thereof, as a function of political ecology (Swyngedouw 1996). Postindustrial 1 interpretations of the Harlem River’s environment reveal the importance of ideas of nature— both polluted and reclaimed—in the rebuilding of New York’s waterfront. Figure 2. The Harlem River, 1973.
