| A recent fish habitat project, on the Chicago River, near the Michigan Ave bridge, has been completed by Friends of the Chicago River, & the City of Chicago. A series of floating gardens have been anchored along one shoreline, and seeded with native plants. The purpose is to establish fish friendly habitat along the river, that has vertical steel plate lining the shore boundary. Video cameras have been placed in the new floating gardens, so people can view the results. If this effort is successful, there are proposals to expand the project to other local rivers & canals. |
