The dolphin that was swimming in the Gowanus Canal died late this afternoon.
Friday afternoon, as snow started to fall, about two dozen people stood on the Union Street bridge to look down at the dolphin.
The dolphin seemed to be stuck, moving up and down on the side of the canal, surrounded by a styrofoam cup, milk jug and what appeared to be a phone book.
“Only in Brooklyn,” a passerby said.
