Is stabilizing the riverbank really necessary?

Yes, stabilization is necessary, particularly in a 700-foot section behind the Post Office and in sections under the Jackson and Madison Avenue plazas. Certain portions of the riverbank are nearly vertical and show signs of erosion and minor failures. The erosion and steep slopes leave the bank at risk of a major slide that could cause serious damage or personal injury.
