Great documentary, it should be assigned in schools throughout Westchester and perhaps especially in the Bronx, where I live! The restoration of this beautiful river is a point of pride for the Bronx, where many residents and organizations came together to help make it happen!
What an incredible history lesson!
SOME OF THE BEST TIMES IN MY LIFE WERE THERE I AM AN ARTIST AND HAVE PAINTED THE BRONX RIVER BRIDGES AND THEY SELL AS FAST AS I CAN PAINT THEM I LOVED THAT PLACE GATH RD, DUCK POND GREAT VID THANKS PILIERO
Grew up playing in Bronx river in the 1960s. Beautiful river, wonderful bridges and depression era structures. But, I never realized it derives from the Kensico dam. What a wonderful land this must have been back in the 18th century and before. So glad the river is cared for these days. Flow on.
Very nice chunk of history I just learned here. I moved to the Bronx in the late 90's and knew very little about the Bronx River. I've fished the section from the zoo to where it turns brackish and catch very nice fish. (Catch & release) Thanks to all parties involved.
Love The Bronx River❤
This is SO interesting. Watching & enjoying this wonderful video from Boiling Springs, Pennsylvania. Thank you so much!
