Season 1, Ep.3 : Jeff Sandgrund, Brooklyn Bridge Park
Jeff Sandgrund is the man that makes the Brooklyn Bridge Park run. In this episode of CB Radio, he offers a fresh perspective on what it means to be in charge of one of the city's largest waterfront parks. As a native Brooklynite, Sandgrund grew up close to the water with a front row seat to the extreme waterfront changes over the past several decades, and he here discusses his experiences growing up in Brooklyn then and now. CB Radio was inspired by the research, design, and development of Citizen Bridge, a temporary floating bridge to reconnect New Yorkers to their waterways. In order to learn about New York City’s waterways, Nancy Nowacek artist and project founder, engaged the expertise and advice of writers, architects, artists, industrial designers, bridge engineers, as well as the experts and enthusiasts that comprise New York City’s maritime community. From the Harbor School to the Waterfront Museum and Showboat Barge, CB Radio—in collaboration with Jake Nussbaum, artist and Clocktower Radio Station Manager— will introduce listeners to the people and ideas that define New York City’s harbor.
