Soundwalk: DuSable Harbor (2010)
June 17, 2010:
Weather gorgeous!
Sound walks: Michigan Avenue AI to River, Riverwalk, Harbor Walk
Turning basin: The Turning Basin is the point where the Chicago River meets the Locks to Lake Michigan. I sat on a bench overlooking the small harbor towards the harbor house, then walked south on the promenade, with DuSable Harbor on my left.
Harbor Walk: Continued walk past DuSable harbor towards the Abegweit. There was a blues band playing on deck which you can hear in the background. A passerby says 'Party Boat!'. The strong breezes make for very clanky boat masts. As I walked south along the curved shore along came several hundred joggers running past me. A guy on a rickshaw shouts 'This ride is better than an American Eagle'. Continued path past yacht club and into Monroe Harbor area, traffic noise from LSD on right, end at Balbo Drive.
