Description
Heroes of the Harbor celebrates maritime leadership in the business, nonprofit, and corporate sectors.
Event Details
Every year, the Waterfront Alliance honors those who have contributed to the vibrancy, sustainability, economy, education, and awareness of the New York and New Jersey harbor, its port, and the metropolitan area. This event elevates the importance of our waterways, port, and coastlines to decision makers, influencers, and leadership.
At this year’s Heroes of the Harbor gala, we celebrate the recovery of our region and our commitment to the future—a future that is resilient to the effects of climate change, committed to renewable energy, and embraces the centrality of the New York and New Jersey harbor to our economic and social health.
2022 marks the 15-year anniversary of the Waterfront Alliance. We are excited to share a wonderful night of celebration with you on October 12, 2022 recognizing our honorees and 15 years of outstanding progress as a leadership organization.
This year, we honor:
Sharlene Brown, Executive Director, YMCA of Greater New York/Castle Hill
Harold J. Daggett, President, International Longshoremen’s Association
John Nardi, President, New York Shipping Association
