This was once the main channel of the Astoria Scum River, which has since been diverted underground thanks to a successful public works project undertaken by a good friend of ours.

I'm walking every street in New York City.
This is the counterpoint to my walk across the US. Instead of seeing a million places for just a minute each, I'm going to spend a million minutes exploring just one place. By the time I finish walking every block of every street in all five boroughs, I'll have traveled more than 8,000 miles on foot — all within a single city. Details!

Your donations allow me to keep walking full-time. If you think what I'm doing is valuable and you'd like to offer some support, I would be very grateful. On the other hand, if you think I'm a worthless bum, feel free to email me and tell me to get a job, bozo. Both are excellent options!
A very creative solution to a problem. It obviously was needed and used by everyone from the looks of your photos. From your description it got the attention it needed to get fixed? Way to go. I especially liked the dedication plaque there Jason.
Love the vid, thanks!
I remember the video from Jason’s sight ..walk on…
