Hey, hey, hey, smoke weed everyday
It's a canal, being from this neighborhood for over 40 years i seen alot happen there, from bodies floating up in the spring to water rats the size of alley fat cats. Yeah, take a tour on foot 1st
I just love this place. Super romantic once you get over the smell.
Don't swim in the water
The most beautiful place in Brooklyn. An amazing place for an acquired taste.
Crystal clear water.
Great for a casual swim on a hot summer day!
Breathe deeply and enjoy the aroma
Refreshing, tangy, but a bit chilly
Glorious. Great swimming hole.
Have a refreshing swim in the "water"
In 50 years you'll be eating oysters from here supposedly. You will not me.
This is a super fun site! No wait, I meant superfund, with a 'd' on the end. Check back around 2020 and it might not be as nasty.
Pretty smelly
Did you have the invisible shrimp from the Gowanus Canal? Ya, uh huh.
Bring a friend for a self-guided Canoe trip sponsored by the Gowanus Dredgers to raise awareness of Harbor Issues. Wednesdays at 6pm and Saturdays at 1pm.
Kinda pretty at night if you look just at the right angle.
The canal smells EXTRA nasty in the summer.
Don't forget to bring a towel!
