NEW MARINA ARRIVING THIS YEAR AT THE BROOKLYN BRIDGE

Poralu Brooklin

Poralu Marine has been selected by Edgewater Resources to design, manufacture the aluminum docks and fingers for their new first class marina at Brooklyn Bridge Park which will directly connect the City of Brooklyn to the water. The marina is seamlessly integrated into the surrounding landscape with both challenges of  the updated hurricane water surge levels and subway  tunnel interference being resolved by utilizing Seaflex anchoring technology. In order to offer a good protection from the waves mainly caused by the ferry traffic a floating concrete breakwater engineered and manufactured by Marinetek will be installed on the outside perimeter.
