Historic Waterfront Museum Barge & Statue of Liberty Harbor Vista, Brooklyn, New York

About this place

Live Stream | Waterfront Museum Barge Lehigh Valley No. 79 & New York Harbor, Red Hook, Brooklyn, New York, USA. Docked along the historic cobbled piers of Red Hook, Brooklyn, the Waterfront Museum is housed aboard the historic 1914 wooden lighterage barge Lehigh Valley No. 79—the only all-wooden barge of its kind afloat. The camera frames tranquil harbor ripples, tugboats, and the distant silhouette of the Statue of Liberty against glowing sunsets. Visitors explore maritime artifacts before dining at Hometown Bar-B-Que for world-famous smoked brisket, Steve's Authentic Key Lime Pie for tart desserts, or Brooklyn Crab for seafood boils.
