Rockaway Artificial Reef
It must cost a fortune to rent this giant derrick.
All manner of concrete, steel, and stone rubble from dredging, demolition projects, and other construction is used as artificial reef materials. This material is generally available at very low cost or free from construction companies who are more than happy to get rid of it. Transportation costs determine where this material is used by the Reef Program.

Sponges grow at all depths, and in brackish and freshwater also. They may occur as thin encrusting coatings on rocks and wood, or as long thin branching fingers attached to the bottom, or in the typical rounded form that has been used for centuries as ... a sponge!
The Red Beard Sponge Microciona prolifera is the commonest and most colorful of several sponges that grow in the region. Sponges also occur in shades of yellow and white and often grow in a much lower, spreading, and encrusting form, especially in areas of high currents. They are the most primitive of multi-celled animals, lacking distinct tissues and organs.
