The area was flooded and badly damaged by Hurricane Sandy in October 2012. Most businesses remain closed. This is Peck Slip and it is for the meantime being used as a holding area for flooded related reconstruction and debris.
The view looking North shows Richard Haas' 1977 mural - Trompe L'oeil depicting a scaled illusionistic view of the Brooklyn Bridge of which the actual view of the real Brooklyn Bridge is seen further in the distance.
