Now in its 13th year, City of Water Day is a free harbor-wide day organized by the Waterfront Alliance, the New York–New Jersey Harbor & Estuary Program (HEP), and partners to raise awareness about the risk we all face from sea level rise and climate change, and champion a climate resilient New York and New Jersey harbor. As we continue to live with COVID-19, this year’s City of Water Day will look different than past years, but with the same goals to educate and inspire.
