One of the hot topics in the area is whether or not to declare the canal a “Superfund Site”.

A few comments: i like this set. great colors you got from the canal. you should have fallen in.

you drink camel piss.
If I fell in, I would be drinking camel piss, amongst a flurry of other carcinogens. That really does look like you, so strange!
The Gowanus is contaminated because Exxon allowed oil to leak into it for decades, they should be the one’s to pay for it.
