Hoboken’s honorary bird could soon get its own artificial island in the Hudson River. Bird lovers are raising money to build a small floating island for common terns that will soon be evicted from a derelict pier on the opposite side of the river from Chelsea Piers. A pair of the pale grey, orange-beaked birds settled on the pier after Hurricane Sandy in 2013. Now, the colony at the former Shipyard Marina at Pier 11 in Hoboken has grown to around 60 terns.

Officials announced the ambitious project in 2022 to convert Ravenswood Generating Station into what would be the largest clean energy facility of its kind in the country. Instead of burning natural gas and fuel oil, the plant on the Queens waterfront would provide power through wind, geothermal energy and batteries stored on-site.

The EPA is having a hard time getting landlords of Greenpoint and East Williamsburg buildings on a toxic Superfund site to open their doors for air testing. Federal officials began knocking on doors in November 2023, taking the first steps toward assessing the pollution of the Meeker Avenue Plume. But since then, officials have gained access to only 200 out of roughly 1,000 properties in the 45-block stretch of Brooklyn contaminated by chemicals from dry cleaners, foundries and metalworking shops.
