This event to promote interest and development on Governors Island, then recently purchased by the city of New York from the U.S. Government, was held in Battery Park in the spring of 2002. Ten years later, thanks to planning by the Governors Island Alliance and the Regional Plan Assocation in cooperation with the National Parks Service, the City of New York, the Metropolitan Waterfront Alliance and numerous civic groups, the island is establishing itself as a new home for public art and recreation programs, a history center, the Harbor School, and future development. © 2012 A GVP/North River Production work-in-progress. • gvproj.org • For a tour of Governors Island, visit: vimeo.com/14701519
