   @emilygorcenski Rome surprised me like that.

   I mean, it's amazingly beautiful, historic *Rome*.
   And the river was an afterthought, an impediment.

     @emilygorcenski One of the better things to happen in London in the last decade or two is the creation of footpaths along both banks of the Thames. This was done by making creating the path a planning condition of every development. There are still diversions around old industrial sites but it's not too bad. I've walked both banks, in stages.

     @emilygorcenski It’s progressing slowly, and is largely to the credit of a small number of individual actors, but Charlottesville is finally opening up the river along High Street. The exception is Albemarle, which helped a lot by establishing the little park up 29 to create a take-out spot for canoes and kayaks.
