IIHR—Hydroscience and Engineering’s James Street Laboratory provides 17,000 square feet for the construction of large hydraulic models.

Tour attendees will explore the capabilities of this impressive space through a working model of the Newtown Creek wastewater management system. Located in Brooklyn, New York, Newtown Creek frequently experiences flooding from wastewater backups even during light rainfall. IIHR is leading efforts to design a new system that addresses these challenges.

Join us on this tour to learn more about the project and see the model in action!
