No, it’s disgusting. I don’t want to catch a disease. People throw trash in the Hudson, are you kidding me?
Alex Lockett, 25, Brooklyn
No, I just don’t think it'd be good.
Jonathan Chang, 22, Texas
I would consider it because I’m not from New York. I’m from Austin and we can swim in any river or lake that’s in the city, and I do. I’ve gone bridge diving in Lady Bird Lake. I'd probably go swimming in the Hudson too.
Kim White, 40, New Jersey
I would not because I don’t know how to swim. I have a phobia of water, especially deep water. The swimming pool is enough for me.
Roxanne Torres, 22, Queens
No, I can’t swim. Even if I could, I probably wouldn’t swim in the Hudson. It sounds really dirty.
Nisan Perera, 30, California
No, it just seems like not a good idea.
Marcelle Perera, 30, California
No, I wouldn’t. It’s not a good idea.
