I'm back from a five week hiatus. This is my first shot with my new Canon 40D and my first shot of 2008.
PS3-Adjusted levels, curves, saturation, applied a light warming filter. Small crop on the right. Adjusted brightness. Resized and saved for the web.

I like the shadows and the light play on the right of the photograph. Perhaps using a touch longer exposure and you would gently blur the water movement to better contrast with the very sharp surroundings. Nicely frames.
Doesn't look like the Bronx that I am familiar with! I think the perspective is too plain. Getting down for a lower shot of this would have probably punched it up quite a bit and made those rocks in the river really stand out as a feature.
The falls might be too centered. Perhaps cropping out the top would put the falls at the top third, leaving the river as the main focal point. As it is, the bright gray sky draws the eye.
