From Fulton Ferry Landing in DUMBO, we dismbark at the India Street pier and head east on India Street, turning north (left) on West Street to Eagle Street, up Franklin Street, then heading back west on Dupont Street to view the Sludge Tank and the future site of Greenpoint Landing. We return to Franklin Street and head south to #184, the Astral Apartments. We continue south on Franklin and take our third right onto Greenpoint Avenue. At the corner of Greenpoint Avenue and West Street we can observe the buildings that make up the Eberhard Faber Pencil Works and Historic District. Heading south, at the corner of West and Noble Streets we come to the site of the Greenpoint Terminal Market Complex. Heading south on West Street, we come to the site of the Continental Iron Works at the corner of Calyer. We return to Franklin and follow it south to Bushwick Inlet and the site of Astral Oil Works. We wrap up at the East River State Park, entering at Kent and N. 8th Street. [map]
