The East River waterfront defines Hunters Point, through its factories, and its brilliant views of the Manhattan skyline.
As a peninsula bounded by the commercial waterways of Newtown Creek and the East River, Hunters Point, a neighborhood on the south side of Long Island City in Queens New York, became a highly industrialized area in the 19th century. Deindustrialization in the 1970s and 80s left many abandoned warehouses and factories in the community. Gantry Plaza State Park was built in this neighborhood in the 1990s, with restored car float docks and an excellent view of Manhattan.
