Designed by artist Anthony Goicolea, this tribute recognizes those lost in the Orlando Pulse nightclub shooting, as well as all victims of hate, intolerance and violence.

Placed at the end of Pier 66, Long Time is a sculptural working water wheel by Paul Ramirez-Jonas that captures the beauty of the majestic Hudson River.

Created by artist Malcolm Cochran, Private Passage (2005), found in Hudson River Park’s Clinton Cove.
