Been here over 2 hrs.....and still have a green light. Does anyone work here? And the guard at the gate ignored me completely until i tapped on the window.

This is a very well designed and educational building. I attended a tour, which showed how the process works, with a guide of the building layout and design. Sims recycling is trying, and it shows, to contribute to a better recycling future. They have an educational department where kids can come and learn the process and the reason for recycling. If you want a change, for the better, you have to start it at a young age. A place where great habits start.

You can sign up for a tour to learn about the recycling process in NYC. They're located on the 29th Street Pier. It has a clear view of Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty.

This is a state of the art facility where all of NYC's recycleable matertals begin their journey. Equiped with solar and wind energy generation as well as other sustainable features too numerous to mention here (i.e. bioswales, Newton canal, barge and railway revitalization), they have and outreach and educational center open to the public - very visitor friendly. This 20 yr profit sharing venture with NYC GOV (with 2 10 yr optional extensions) is completely unknown to it's citizens while major cities around the globe watch to see if this is a potential renaissance of a new industrial revolution. Learn about the SIMS facility in Brooklyn NYC that can change the future.

Cool recycling facility with great educational activities for all ages.

Harry Matthews

A well-designed educational center that features America’s largest commercial recycling center and great views of the harbor and skyline. Programs are available for elementary school, high school and adult groups, but advance booking is required. All programs are free and include access to a lunch room. Ample parking is available but public transportation is a long walk.

Can I give zero stars ? Stay away. Waste of time. It takes forever to get loaded. They can keep their recycled materials.
