THE NATURAL CONTOURS OF THE CREEK WERE TRANSFORMED AS EUROPEAN SETTLERS DRAINED AND FILLED MARSHES TO INCREASE AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION INDUSTRIAL AND COMMERCIAL USES HAVE SHAPED THE CREEK OVER THE LAST 300 YEARS

17TH & 18TH CENTURIES EUROPEAN SETTLEMENTS Pre-1600s Native American settlement at the head of the Creek. Mid-1600’s The Dutch and the English settlements use the Creek for agriculture and industrial commerce.

RAPID INDUSTRIALIZATION 1850s Country’s 1st Kerosene Refinery. 1860s 1st Modern Oil Refinery; Railroad installed. 1880s Astral Oil Company, later Standard Oil. 1920-30s Creek evolves as a major shipping hub, a home to sugar refineries, hide tanning plants, canneries & copper wiring plants.

A POLLUTED WATERWAY Prior to mid-20th Century: No Industry or Government Regulation on disposal of unwanted by products caused major pollution of the Creek. 17-30 million gallon of underground oil spill, copper contamination, hydrogen sulfide, old tires, car frames, seats and loose paper.

LATE 20TH CENTURY A NEW BEGINNING Remediation begins, life returns to the Creek. 1997 The Newtown Creek Alliance forms. 2017 The Newtown Creek Vision Plan begins. NEWTOWN CREEK REMAINS ONE OF THE LARGEST CONCENTRATIONS OF MARITIME COMMERCE AND WATERFRONT INDUSTRY NEWTOWN CREEK HOLDS A STRATEGIC LOCATION IN 2
