On The Waterfront

If you leave my apartment and walk further east on 20th St., after about five or ten minutes you arrive at the waterfront. Years ago when I moved here it was pretty unremarkable. Since then, they really have done an amazing rehab. They've built walkways and bike paths, picnic areas and green spaces. The view is to die for, and it's still enough of an undiscovered secret that you can take a book or newspaper and some lunch, and you can count on always finding an available bench or table to sit at. Every time I go there I wonder why I don't go there more.
