Our first time running into @riverkeeper Capt Luis on the Creek! As a @harborschool alum and participant with the former East River Apprentice Shop (a boat building program that was located in the @gmdc_ldc building) Luis has a rich history with Newtown Creek, so we couldn’t be more excited to see him in this esteemed role. 23 years and going strong in our partnership with @riverkeeper - make sure to give them a shout if you see the Ian Fletcher around the harbor! 🫡 🛥️ (fb)
