Brownfield Boating invites New York City (NYC) mayoral candidates, Queens Borough President candidates, and NYC Council District 20 and 21 candidates on paddling tours of Flushing Creek in collaboration with Tending the Edge and Guardians of Flushing Bay. Tours will explore the disconnect between current plans for the waterfront and the next NYC Comprehensive Waterfront Plan produced by the NYC Department of City Planning. Candidates will have a chance to kayak or canoe in Flushing Creek, check in on nearby oyster cages, explore combined sewage overflows up close, and discuss details about the numerous plans for development along Flushing Creek and Flushing Bay.
