Brooklyn is building thousands of new apartments around the Gowanus Canal, one of America’s most polluted waterways and a federal Superfund site. For more than a century, the canal functioned as an industrial sewer, collecting coal tar, sewage, heavy metals, chemical waste, and toxic sludge known as “black mayonnaise.” Now, New York is trying to reverse that damage with a multi-billion-dollar cleanup involving dredging, capping, contaminated soil management, and two massive underground sewer overflow tanks. But at the same time, the surrounding industrial district is being transformed into one of Brooklyn’s next major residential neighborhoods, with thousands of new homes, public waterfront space, and major private development. The central question is whether Gowanus is a smart model for reusing damaged urban land, or whether Brooklyn is building a denser, more expensive neighborhood around pollution that has been contained, but not truly solved.

Listen to the complete audio from the high-profile federal appeal of Sean “Diddy” Combs before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.Case: United States v. Combs, No. 25-2623

Argued: April 9, 2026

Panel: Judges William J. Nardini, Sarah A. Merriam, and M. Miller Baker (sitting by designation)

In this 2-hour oral argument, Combs’ attorney Alexandra A.E. Shapiro (Shapiro Arato Bach) challenges his convictions on two Mann Act counts (transportation to engage in prostitution) and argues that the district court improperly used acquitted conduct (from the racketeering and sex trafficking charges on which he was acquitted) to enhance his sentence under the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines. The government defends the sentencing as proper.

The panel described the case as an “exceptionally difficult” issue of first impression and reserved decision.

Use of acquitted conduct at sentencing
Interpretation of the 2024 U.S. Sentencing Commission guidelines
