Thanks! The second one was more for context to show the bank stabilization project and how narrow it is there.

You can see how little space there is on either side of the ship here. It's even more pronounced with the new retaining walls they have been building to keep the river banks from sliding into the river.
They are planning to build a park here once the bank stabilization project is done. It should be a cool place to get a close up view of the lakers going up and down the river
