Long Island City Sundial (2006-present)

An ongoing public project, Long Island City Sundial uncovers the Queens neighborhood just across the East River from New York City as a gigantic sundial, with the one prominent skyscraper in the area as the dial's central shadow-casting gnomon. See the project website www.licsundial.net for further detailed information including maps, animation and blog.
