NPO: New York Restoration Project: Peter Jay Sharp Boathouse

Swindler Cove Park is also home to New York Restoration Project's (NYRP) magnificent Peter Jay Sharp Boathouse -- a floating oasis on the Harlem River designed by Robert A.M. Stern Architects. The culmination of six years of planning, construction and fundraising, this state-of-the-art facility was opened to the community in June 2004 and is the site of the annual Peter Jay Sharp Head of the Harlem Regatta, which draws thousands of spectators and more than 300 participants from area high schools, colleges and rowing clubs each year.
