Is it a trick question? It looks an awful lot like that omnipresent invasive, purple loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria).
On the other hand, it's right by the water, and there are some large spade-like leaves in the foreground, so possibly it's pickerelweed (Pontederia cordata)--though that's usually a bluer purple, and only grows one set of flowers per stalk... so yeah, I don't think that's pickerelweed.

My vote is purple loosestrife.
