An eagle-eyed tipster spotted a tractor trailer hauling a modular unit into Brooklyn Bridge Park last week. The Brooklyn Bridge Park brass told us the New York Center for Sustainable Energy Educational Center is being relocated from Pier One to Pier Six. The center, housed in three shipping containers, is where the park holds many of its educational programs. It also serves as a charging station for park maintenance and security vehicles. The structure was designed to be entirely sustainable and operate completely off-grid — it receives no outside power sources to operate. Here’s a photo tour of the center from when it opened in 2011.
