This book explores the creation of the Bronx River Parkway Commission, formed in 1907 to protect the Bronx River from pollution and preserve its natural beauty for public enjoyment. The author delves into the urgency of the Commission's mission, given the rapid deterioration of the river due to sewage and industrial waste. The book also examines the legal and political challenges faced by the Commission as it worked to acquire land and establish a parkway along the river's banks. Ultimately, the Commission's efforts resulted in the creation of a vital green space for recreation and a testament to the importance of preserving our natural heritage.
