I walked along the Hudson and past the Vessel the other day because it was flat and scenic. I also wanted to see what progress was happening at Pier 55, aka on Diller Island.
Beneath, from small boats . . . these workers attended to several of the 132 pots that make up the island.
Michael Miller stood by Weeks 526, as
at this moment did Shawn Miller.
Meanwhile, coming upriver was another Weeks crane, the 533, with Susan Miller on port bow and
Elizabeth supplying power.
At a certain moment, Shawn departed the 526 and headed over to the Weeks 533
to assist.
All photos by Will Van Dorp, who recently saw Weeks and Miller tugs working on 533 here.
