September 3, 2010
No one would guess that the country is in a double dip depression from the looks of North Cove. The number of mega-yachts anchored for the Labor Day holiday weekend has to be near record levels. It seems more like Newport, Rhode Island, than New York City.
Lady M, at 164 feet, is the [...]]]></description>

Coincidentally, on the same day President Obama gave a primetime speech to announce that all combat troops had left Iraq, BatteryPark.TV is glad to announce “Mission Accomplished” too with Project Duck. The last straggling duckling that was developing flight feathers more slowly than the others finally flew away today.
(The last duck to fly, [...]]]></description>

August 26th, 2010
The new Tire Swing Park by West Thames has had as controversial of a launch as its planning stage. First, opponents of the park raised concerns over the iconic swinging tire and forced it to be removed. Then, the drainage of the rubberized surface by the kid’s waterfall was backing up and creating [...]]]></description>

June 1, 2010
Approximately three weeks ago, two nests of duck eggs hatched in Battery Park City. According to a park ranger, one nest was in the grass of the Irish Hunger Memorial and the other one was in Tear Drop Park. Vince McGowan of the Battery Park Conservancy said that a local resident relocated the [...]]]></description>

July 1, 2010
The new Tire Swing Park was officially opened today with a ribbon cutting ceremony. While the play area has been open since Memorial Day, the grass lawn was just opened up. Officials from the State DOT, BPCA and CB1 spoke, but no State or City elected officials presented.

As previously reported, the waterfall pond by the Irish Hunger Memorial has ten ducklings stranded in it that were placed there by humans. They lack adequate food and nesting ground. Approximately nine have died in the pond so far.
BatteryPark.TV noticed on the evening of June 1st that the water level of the pond [...]]]></description>

The most peculiar and controversial design of the new Tire Swing Park complex is the large arching red steel beams. They look like a cross between the Golden Gate Bridge and whale bones. It is not clear what the functional purpose of them are. One thing is clear: they beg for kids to [...]]]></description>

The tire swing was replaced on July 1st for the ribbon cutting ceremony and is supposed to stay in place. Some warning signs have been posted for [...]]]></description>
