Work on the Schuylkill Banks

There has as of late been a significant amount of work on the north end of the Schuylkill Banks trail. Several new features are being added: 1) a fishing pier at the south side of the site, 2) a low riverside trail (now half-complete) that will extend from the fishing pier to a stairwell at the north end, and 3) landscape improvements at the north end of the site (including the structure along West River Drive?). All of these improvements, note, take place along the parts of the Banks that lie around the proposed Paine (skate) Park; in the center of the skate park site itself is merely a poster about the improvements and the staging yard for landscaping and heavy equipment.
