Has
the true size of the Schaller dock been misrepresented? You
decide. |
The pictures that Mr Schaller's
engineer exhibited at the DEP meeting were taken with a
very wide-angle lens, far wider
than people's actual field of view. This was done, of course, to make
the dock seem to have a trivial visual impact. |
Here's
what the dock will really look like. This overlays the scale
drawing to the location and size of the four-foot box placed into
the river by MrSchaller's engineers. Our opinion? Trying to tell us
that a 104-foot dock that's 42 feet wide at
the end - with a large boat hanging off the side (and up in
the air) - can be represented by a four-foot
box is an insult. |
