Abstract (en)

Describes current plans to upgrade the Coney Island Water Pollution Control Plant, located in a residential neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. Cites efforts to make the plant more appealing to the community, emphasizing the involvement of two New York sculptors, Christy Rupp and Ned Smyth, who are designing public art works (a promenade and a fence) in conjunction with the project.
