In 2010, PortSide expanded TankerTours of the MARY A. WHALEN to include professional education by working with City Tech's new program "Along the Shore." This program brings community college professors from around the country to study Brooklyn Industrial waterfront. We outlined for the professors how the MARY A. WHALEN could be a teaching tool. This example of the new movement "place-based education" is central to PortSide's mission. Our new home in Atlantic Basin will allow us to grow such endeavors and partnerships due to the greater access the public will have to the ship there.
