    The Franklin Delano Roosevelt East River Drive hugs the east side of Manhattan from 125th St in Harlem to the Battery underpass at the southern tip of the island, a 9 1/2 mile roller coaster gone urban megastructure. Approaching from any of the bridges across the East River, the highway twists and bends, rises and falls, its back a striped mosaic parade punctuated regularly by taxi yellow. From the vantage of the Williamsburg Bridge in particular, hundreds of feet in the air and a half-mile or so away, we can see it as Robert Moses and his engineers did in the 1930's, before the first sections were actually built-silent, in miniature, a logical arterial for a congested urban grid. The road's smooth curves follow the contours of the island;…

    If you were to take a random inhabitant of Los Angeles and ask them about the Los Angeles River, they would give you a confused look saying “what river?” Meanwhile, others will say “Oh, you mean the place with the shopping carts.” This is because most of the river has been blocked off over the centuries as more projects cover the river and more recently has become a haven for the homeless. The river has played a large role in the shaping and the history of Los Angeles, as the water that flowed from it played a vital role in the previous inhabitants of the Los Angeles area. Today, the river can barely even be called a river because when you look at this so called river, all you see is concrete and maybe a small stream of water. This will not be the case for long, as conservation plans are being made to restore the river back to its days of glory.…
