What is a literal castle?

When I started working on a tugboat in NYC , the captain told me not to fall overboard in the Gowanus Canal or they wouldn't let me back on the boat. I always thought Newtown Creek was worse. But they cleaned up Newtown Creek to the point that I saw Cormorants diving for fish in it before I retired in 2009.

I grew up a few blocks fron the Canal. The smell back in the 1980's and early 90's was unlike anything I've ever smelled since. I would go as far to say that most young people that live in NYC today have never smelled such a stink! I still live in the neighborhood and can gladly say that the Gowanus Canal today is nothing like it used to be. Looks and smells much cleaner now. Compared to 30 years ago you wouldnt even believe that its the same waterway!

Very high levels of PCBs and others. It was reported as being one of the worst polluted waterways in the US.

Cleaning it up and returning it to a brackish saltwater marsh -- still stinky

Great story. I lived in Carroll Gardens, and rode my bike across the Gowanus daily,on my way to Prospect Park. This was1989, and it did stink! The scent from a nearby coffee roaster made it palatable! When the tidal access was restored, it all improved dramatically. I remember riding the drawbridge on my way to the park, and being waved down by the drawbridge operator. He excitedly pointed out that he had see a crab! Alive! The bridge op saw this as a sign! I remained skeptical.

One pathogen you did not list is venereal bacteria! A few years back a car went into the Canal, the driver got out of the car before it went in. A passer-by not knowing this jumped into the Canal to rescue, only to find out nobody was in danger. He was admitted to the hospital and had to be treated, shots, etc. because anybody who is crazy enough to go in that water is required to get hospital treatment, according to the newspaper article I read at the time!

This should tell you about the greed in New York City, I live on Bond street within the 300s near Union street. I’ve lived here my whole life, I cannot tell you of another waterway I find more stinky, or more polluted than the Canal. My homies and me used to say if you fall in there you come out a ninja turtle. However if you do fall in there what you would need is immediate hospitalization. I wouldn’t ever call this a river or anything near a river. It is by far one of the most smelly things you will find in New York. Union street, (Carroll street used to have a bridge), and 3rd street all have bridges that go over it, tbh I would say that I’m so used to the smell that sometimes I can’t smell it, that should tell you something about my health. The truth is I love Gowanas, and Carroll park but I cannot continue to live here, tbh it has nothing to do with the canal! It’s the area in general, they have made this area condo city within the last 2 years out of nowhere, they’re pushing native New Yorkers out like me who can’t afford those kinds of rent, congestion, and bills.

A very timely history, and message for NYC.

Really good doc! I’ve been to the Canals numerous times during my life. However, you did forget to mention a few interesting facts about the canal. For starters, the canal was instrumental in transporting much of the Brownstone used to build Brooklyn’s iconic Brownstone homes. Also, you didn’t mention sludgie the whale! Nor the beautiful Newtown creek nature walk along the canal. In addition, you will see ducks floating on the water from time to time. This signals that the water is getting cleaner, despite still being unsafe for humans. If you’re interested, check out an artist name George Trakkas. He was pretty influential in bringing attention to the canal back in the day.

I work in a studio in Gowanus and over the past year, several enormous residential towers have been constructed. Unfortunately, the water cleanup is not moving as quickly as the new construction. Architectural renders show people kayaking in the canal, but it still stinks and I will never touch that water. On the other hand, I watched a goose and a duck hunting thru the mud next to the Lowe’s parking lot
