Beneath the waters surrounding New York City is a landscape of objects so mysterious and evocative they just beg for stories to be told. Underwater New York is an online anthology of stories, art and music inspired by a growing list of underwater objects found in New York City waters. Come hear some of the city's most inventive minds conjure songs and tales about these sunken off-beat treasures with contributors to the website. www.underwaternewyork.com
