Waterfront Museum
Worth a stop·Red Hook, Brooklyn
In the boonies of Red Hook: a barge a guy lives on, opened to the public. Cool Rube Goldberg machine. Three nearby restaurants had lines around the block.
What it is
The museum seeks to educate about maritime history & expand waterfront access in the metro area.
Also on the block, if you have time
Pioneer Works (0.4 mi, free).
