The bridge connects the Throgs Neck section of the Bronx with the Bay Terrace section of Queens. The Throgs Neck Bridge is a six lane suspension bridge, with three in each direction. It's a toll road that opened about 63 years ago. It connects the boroughs of Queens to the south and the Bronx to the north. I love to look at and photograph bridges from underneath, up close or even from a distance. I am like my mother in that I'm not fond of traveling over them. I didn't mind as much when I was younger and doing the driving. I did always attempt to get on and off quickly! There's no doubt about the convenience of this bridge. Truthfully I don't remember the last time I crossed this bridge!

I love this Henry Hudson Bridge and most all bridges. Let me give you a close up view!…read more My view of the bridge was up close and personal. I was there hiking with a friend. Sometimes I enjoy being close. Sometimes you need a full view of the bridge. The Henry Hudson Bridge is a steel arch toll bridge in New York City across the Spuyten Duyvil Creek. It connects Spuyten Duyvil in the Bronx with Inwood in Manhattan to the south, via the Henry Hudson Parkway. On the Manhattan side the parkway goes into Inwood Hill Park. I'm partial to Bridges. I like to collect photos of bridges everywhere I go. This was a nice day to get a shot of the bridge towering above me. A moment in time.....

The Henry Hudson Bridge is located on the North End of Manhattan Island - I mean the very very very North tip which is when you start in Washington Heights and then shoot right up the west side of the island to the tip, and it does have a two $5 tolls, each way, or at least it used to when I used to take this bridge a lot. It dates back to 1935 and it's a good way to cross into the Bronx. It's pretty but it's not amazing. It costs twice as much if he don't have a tag from New York. Which is bizarre but that's the way it goes. That's why it loses a point despite being beautiful.

It is consideted a Landmark as the National Historic Civil Engineering transporting million cars making it globally the most active motor vehicle bridge !!

It's supposed to be this grand, important thing they even name drop old George Washington like he'd actually care about a bunch of noisy cars crawling into New Jersey. It's the "world's busiest motor vehicle bridge," which just means it's packed full of thousands of miserable phonies trapped in their automobiles, honking at each other and getting nowhere fast. ​They brag about having fourteen whole lanes and being double-decked, but all that really means is you get twice as much exhaust fumes in your face. If you look up the facts, it's 4,760 feet long, and back in 1931, it was the longest bridge span in the whole damn world until the Golden Gate Bridge opened up in San Francisco and stole its thunder. People get so excited about those stupid records, like having fourteen lanes of traffic is something to write home about. ​And then you look at all these photos of it. People take these fancy pictures at sunset or night when all the lights are on, making it look all romantic and marvelous, but it's pure nonsense. In real life, it's just cold gray steel, buzzing lanes, and a bunch of construction guys dangling off cables doing biennial inspections while a million semi-trucks rumble underneath them. Looking at all those endless cars crawling across the Hudson River packed with sad faces just makes you feel depressed as hell.

We headed out on foot on the Fourth of July to get some Italian ices, and we discovered this statue and its "park-ette" on the corner of rt 106 and berry hill road. Having passed by so many times in the car, I often wondered what all of the plaques said. Certainly not a destination, and you'd be hard pressed to spend more than 15-20 minutes here- still on foot it seems a welcome respite on the day of our independence. Also here with this beautiful sculpture are plaques honoring those from the town of Oyster Bay who gave their lives in war for our freedom. Trees planted will be enjoyed for generations to come. If you come to Oyster Bay, pass by and wave at Teddy- and take a moment to remember those who served.

Teddy Roosevelt - carried a big stick and was not afraid to wave it around... and we had the good fortune to have him make not only his home, but the summer White House (now Wild Honey restaurant) he worked out of, right in Oyster Bay, NY. It might have taken almost 100 years, but the town eventually condemned the small convenience store on this little plot of land, cleaned it up and placed the 12 foot statue of Teddy, (which had been located temporarily across the street in front of the Boys & Girls club) on his new perch at the crossroads of Oyster Bay so you see him no matter which way you head into town. Truly a fine piece of work commemorating the 26th President. We could use another like him!

This bull represents the bull that Captain John Smith rode in the Kentucky derby only to lose to Sea Biscuit, because Pocahontas was too heavy... Or, alternatively, this represents the bull that Richard Smith rode as far as he could in one day in order to gain as much land as he could from the chief of the Wyandanch Indians, in said ride. I like the 2nd version personally but no matter how much you suck at American History, you can rest assured that if you use this magnificent beast as a landmark, everyone will find their way to your house. Anatomically correct? You betcha - bronze junk and all.
