Edit: For clarification, these pics are some of the earliest of the completed Pleasanton/Garden City 36th St footbridge. This is after construction of the Thurman Mill Canal head gate and before the new wave shaper diversion dam.
From the north looking south, greenbelt now veers to the east to meet the new bridge's approach.
The Thurman Mill Diversion aka 36th St wave. Low winter flow of about 280 CFS.
Upper Garden City's Waterfront District:
Lots of cargo bikes and bikes pulling trailers in this area especially in summer.
New head gate for the Thurman Mill Canal is complete. This is a massive chunk of concrete.

Last but not least:
EDIT: Mission completed winter of 2011/2012, kayaking began March 2012 a big water year. Spring/Summer 2013 very low water. Note: the concrete that made that waterfall is still there, the new dam is a few yards downstream.
