I would like to add Newtown Creek to the NY Harbor map.

Hi seva,
You can not have looked very hard, Newton Creek is already mapped quite clearly, or is NEWTOWN Creek elsewhere? See my picture below.

Angus.

Quite clearly perhaps, but it ends rather abruptly before the first bridge..
 In reality it goes on much farther than that.. Of course not all details can be included in the game.. :)

Hi Salty,
I stand corrected. :doh: I had no idea that the creek was so long or so interesting, thanks for putting me right.

Angus.

Creek's name is Newtown Creek, so there is a typo in the game map, and as you can see, it is not mapped very well.

Interesting indeed.. ;)   It appears to be one of the most polluted waterways in the U.S.

There are plenty of videos of Newtown Creek on YouTube..
