Why would we want canals? Have you been to the Gowanus Canal or Newtown Creek? They’re disgusting.

Clean them up I mean it's not like other cities around the world don't have clean canals. Amsterdam for instance.

idk I think it be nice to see what the city looked like before they were paved in. It's not like any harm would be done. The canals were there for 1000 if not millions of years.

There were not canals in NYC for thousands or millions of years. Are you thinking of uncovering streams and rivers that have been paved over?
