Ok so I cheated a little and I took the picture on an overpass in Westchester but nevertheless it bears our namesake – The Bronx. Through the years, thanks in part to organizations like the The Bronx River Alliance, major efforts to clean up the waterway that bisects our borrow and Westchester have successfully turned it from a dumping ground to a destination. Fishes once more inhabit the waters and yes even beavers are back home building dams.
