This is possibly as awesome as cars that turn into robots:
Ms. Buttenwieser and her team looked south, and in 2004 bought a decommissioned cargo barge in Louisiana called the New Orleans. In a bit of good luck, Hurricane Katrina did not damage the 85-by-300-foot vessel, but it did delay the first stages of conversion.
Now the pol on the edge of Brooklyn Heights is finally ready to go. I thank Ms. Buttenwieser for living up to her utterly philanthropic name.
