So apparently there is some talk going around of the city getting rid of all the rocks along the Delaware river at Penn Treaty Park, in Fishtown, to create a semi-proper beachy-type area. And while I really can’t imagine anyone wanting to swim in that nasty-ass water; OR the safety of swimming there, with the river’s often strong current; OR, quite frankly, the city EVER getting it’s act together enough to create any public works project at the riverfront that doesn’t include the unwavering supply of tax income from a casino. However, I could image a mini dog Ganges-type mecca for pet owners.

Would you all go to a beach in Fishtown? To take your dog? To sunbath? To have sex at night?…
