"Battery Park City and the Authority are not just about the buildings – it’s about the character of the community that has developed over time. Public space has had a new renaissance in New York City, but here in Battery Park City is where it started."

Fish

The Hudson River is home to over 150 species of fish. BPCA’s catch and release programs such as Go Fish! and our Marine Education field trips for NYC schools give people of all ages a chance to learn about the marine life in New York Harbor. BPCA’s staff and volunteer master anglers have  kept a “life list” of each species caugh.  The list is below.
Visitors and fisherfolk are encouraged to send us photographs and/or details of their own catch.  Please send them to info.bpc@bpca.ny.gov.
