New York will get four giant waterfalls during the summer as a city art project and tourism draw. NYC tourism got a huge boost when Christo put his panels in Central Park. Seeing a great opportunity, the city commissioned Danish artist Olafur Eliasson to create the waterfalls. The waterfalls will fall into the East River and the harbor.


Waterfalls as Urban Art (UPDATE) - The New York City Waterfalls Now Open (GALLERY)

Installation will cost $15 million, funded by private donations to New York's Public Art Fund. "It's about seeing water in a different way," Eliasson told a news conference on Wednesday, unveiling plans for the waterfalls, which will range in height from 90 to 120 feet -- around the same as the Statue of Liberty from head to toe. The falls will be in place from mid-July to mid-October. (news.yahoo)
