Don Horton worked with his family on barges from the age 10-18. During WWII his family were part of the merchant marines, as was the case with many families who lived and worked on barges. In 2015 he came back to Red Hook and talked to PortSide NewYork about his memories of the place.

These pictures are part of our blogpost about Don Horton's Red Hook WaterStories. Don wrote this text about his memories of the Red Hook Flats in 2015.
