Its sad when you hear those kind of stories, cause you think about if you did it now, you'de get sick from whats in there or all the litter that might be on any type island in the river.
Hell even the historical bergen county page on facebook, when they show pics of people swimming on the hudson in alpine and how nice it used to be. Its urneal what we've done to this planet.
