Canal bridge at River Towers

The canal at River Towers is one of the many reasons I love this little gem tucked between Mt. Vernon District Park and the Potomac River.

Canadian Geese at River Towers

River Towers backs up against the Dyke Marsh, a national wildlife preserve that is home to a good many waterfowl and at least one pair of beavers that I’ve seen.  Normally the geese stay close to the marsh and don’t approach the buildings at River Towers, but I suppose this year, they’ve had enough of the snow.

Geese at River Towers

If you’re seeking a home that is close to Old Town, close to the Potomac and you don’t want to break the bank, River Towers is a great place to investigate any time of the year.
