Great to see this level of natural restoration in the most urban city in the country.

Its such a blessing to have a river run through your community. I walk there everyday.
-
These people are doing a great job, God bless you all.

healthy shores=healthy water, healthy air, healthy people.

would love to see a follow up in 2020.

I live along the Bronx River. It’s beautiful. I wish they would remove the dams. I always see fish at the front of the dam and they can’t swim upstream. I also wish people would stop littering.
-
great project, great story!
-
I am glad to see this work done. Awesome job. I have one question/concern. Why did you wrap the shells in a plastic mesh container? Why wouldn't you use a small rope made from a biodegradable material?
-
Really cool I love this stuff! Thank you for taking the time to share
-
God bless everyone for thinking forward about river restoration.
-
I CANNOT SAY MUCH FOR THE OTHER IGNOPRANT COMMENTS, SOME WERE QUITE AMAZING. HOWEVER, I AM QUITE THANKFUL TO YOUR RESTORATION PROJECT. THANK YOU FOR CLEANING OUR RIVERS. WE HAVE TO KEEP MOTHER EARTH HEALTHY, FOR ALL OF OUR SAKES. EARTH IS DEMENISHING AS TIME GOES FORWARD.

God Bless You

so its been a bunch of years. What is the outcome compared to the plan?
-
Awesome
-
Is there a plan to remove the several smaller dams that are in the river? Like the ones in the zoo, garden and several in lower Westchester.

I grew up very close to this river. It's a good thing what these people are doing. But they will never see the Bronx River unpolluted. Even after they pull out all the human refuse, they would still have to dredge the toxic soil that is probably three feet thick after two centuries of using it for a sewage system and dumping place for industrial waste. That river used to glow green at night. We still swam in it...

Doing great job, but the plastic bags around the shells will probably kill them
-
Great job.... too bad big business will never admit that they are a HUGE part of the problem.
