😰 What should we do with Newtown Creek? Here’s the history of NYC’s most polluted waterway that had a massive oil spill of up to 30 million gallons! The best way to visit Newtown Creek is by visiting from Long Island City or Greenpoint waterfronts. #nyctiktok #urbandecay

🥺 One of the largest oil spills in American history happens right here in New York City. To this day residents of Greenpoint report a strong smell emanating from the nearby Newtown Creek and the ground. Willis Elkins of the Newtown Creek Alliance tells us more about this spill. This is the last video of the Newtown Creek series, I hope all of you enjoyed it! Which NYC waterway should I cover next? #climateaction #nyctiktok
