Urban Rivers. Chicago, IL

FWM Docks manufactured this custom dock in our Hudson NH facility for Urban Rivers as part of their Wild Mile Project. Transported and then installed in Chicago by our staff. FWM Docks is thankful to be a part of this green project.

The Wild Mile Chicago will be a mile-long floating park located on the North Branch Canal of the Chicago River, a manmade channel along the east side of Goose Island between Chicago Ave and North Ave.

The completed park will consist of floating gardens and forests with public walkways and kayak docks in the Chicago River. The Wild Mile will function as a public park, open-air museum, botanical garden, kayaker destination, and classroom for the community, and provide a habitat for native wildlife.
