Jen Richard videoed this in Fort Point Channel by the Tea Party Museum this morning. The New England Aquarium confirms it was a harbor porpoise.

That being said, the harbor is unbelievably clean since it used to have the color of a macchiato and the smell, for lack of a better word, since what it was filled with, shit.
Kudos for Paul Levy for taking this project on time and on budget after decades, really centuries of neglect. Also a lot of credit goes to William Golden, seemingly the first Quincy politician with any grey matter between his ears since John Quincy Adams, for getting the ball rolling on the clean up after jogging through "solid effluent" as he ran along Wollaston Beach one day in the 80's and to Judge Paul Garrity who knocked some heads to push along the clean up.
You can thank the Clean Water Act and these guys for directly leading to this dolphin but also to the crowd of people who unfortunately hang out on the balcony of The Envoy today.
Nobody would give any kudos to Reagan on this, but

As a resident of another state during the 1980s, I only learned of the condition of Boston Harbor when Reagan effectively rubbed Dukakis' nose in it during one of their debates.
Any number of reasons not to give kudos to Reagan

And one of them is that it was Bush 1 that ran against Dukakis and used the harbor against him, not Reagan.
D'oh.

Reagan, Bush 1. Same difference.
I think I got the decade right?
