Madrid. There is a river running through it, but it's not wide enough for it to be a transportation channel.

SP has the Guarapiranga dam within its limits. It also have a beach and some people use it for water sports, like sailing. It also has the Tietê and Pinheiros rivers, but both are very polluted. Pinheiros at least serves for composing the landscape of the Nações Unidas avenue.

Well if the requirement is to run through the city's core, then cities like St. Louis wouldn't count because St. Louis is just east of the Mississippi River, and it does not run through the city core... And obviously St. Louis is a city build on a major river.
