    I’ve lived in the area for 2 1/2 years and never been to City Point. Thanks for the history!

    Fascinating! I’ve just begun to explore City Point because a friend has recently moved to a condo there and we walk around the neighborhood. Now I’m even more interested in the history and development of the area!

    One small error. At 9:20. The Cedars beach resort was on Hallock Ave, between Lamberton St. and Second St., not near South Water St. There was an organized opposition to creating Bay View Park by those who wanted the city to develop the Cedars instead. However, a lawyer pointed out that the railroad likely would take The Cedars by imminent domain, which they in fact did. So, Bay View Park was developed instead, even though it required the infilling of a mosquito-infested salt marsh.
