the marina is cool though. it's where i launch my kayak when i go paddling out on the river. it's so cool to take an elevator to the base of your condo tower and go kayaking right from there.

Ah, I got that tidbit from "This Is Marina City" which would obviously have been somewhat out of date as it was made right after the towers were completed.
Pretty freaking sweet none the less. Is there another skyscraper in the world other than River City and Marina City that has a marina built right into the plan? I'd imagine there are several in Dubai?
