I just want somewhere to sit, along the edge of the river, in an urban context, with hundreds of people. Sometimes it is great to be surrounded by people, sometimes, not so much...... Im glad that some of the new developments offer this. The river is so beautiful and calming, im sure there is a way to incorporate fun without destruction. It would be great if they could do something along the edge of princes island park instead of those rough boulders. Those are quite hard to relax (or walk) on. The boulder steps along the east village river walk are perfect.
