The NYPD identified the girl as Nancy Zheng, 15, of Sunset Park; she lived just a few blocks away from where she was found dead.
Police did not immediately share details about the cause of death, including how she may have come to be in the water or if she had died before or after ending up in the water.
The investigation remains ongoing, and her body was transferred to the Medical Examiner's office for an autopsy.
