I want to look into Staten Island’s North Shore community. It’s contains the site of an old warehouse that was once used for part of the Manhattan project. The island has also been exposed to tank and oil spills. Several areas of the island have been labeled as Superfund sties. Fresh Kills is one community that is being cleared of pollutants and turned into a park. I want to research the impact the spills and projects have on each community. I’ve lived in the community for most of my life and I would like to learn more about its history and the current dangers it faces.
