he 11-acre Sims Municipal Recycling facility sits on a former NYPD impoundment lot on the Brooklyn waterfront. Barges slosh to a stop at the city-owned pier in the South Brooklyn Marine Terminal. Each day, they unload as many as 450 tons of recycled materials collected by the Department of Sanitation.
Crushed glass and shattered rock from the construction of the 2nd Avenue subway were aggregated into a coarse building material to raise the facility an additional four feet as a preventative measure against storm surges. “They’re low-cost materials that are generated locally,” Tom Outerbridge, the facility’s manager, explained to CityLab.
Polished bottle shards—like heaps of wave-tumbled sea glass—decorate the courtyard, “as a substitute for woodchips or gravel,” says Outerbridge.
Visitors are a common sight in the facility. Outerbridge estimates that some 7,000 guests have toured since it opened in 2013. “Some people don’t believe that recycling really happens,” he says. “There’s kind of an urban myth that it’s just for show somehow, and that their stuff ends up in garbage cans. It’s helpful to be able to dispel that.” Plus, “the success of the entire recycling program hinges on public participation.”
Before processing, the mountains of recyclables dwarf the backhoes and trucks that have ferried them around. Then, afterwards, parcels of compacted plastic look like hay bales or building blocks. They’re hoisted back onto barges—or rail cars—and hauled away.
The tidal lagoon model gets round this problem by actually altering the coastline to create the correct conditions. Instead of bridging a river mouth, it requires the construction of what is effectively an artificial harbor, a stretch of water enclosed by a semicircular, rock-clad barrier built up from the seabed. A harbor mouth is created within this barrier, where the inflow and outflow of water powers a set of turbines. Swansea’s barrier will be 5.9 miles long when constructed, with a mouth fitted with up to 26 turbines, a final result outlined in
