New York City is surrounded by water, but many of its shorelines are largely unknown. Photographer Susannah Ray ’94 has spent over two years exploring and photographing the city’s coast, where people love to sit, swim, and daydream. The resulting images, collected in New York Waterways (Hoxton Mini Press) give a new perspective on the megacity we thought we knew.
