It's the Queensboro, aka Ed Koch, aka 59th Street (feelin' groovy) Bridge. Heard a story once about a guy who was walking under this bridge and started whistling that song. Then he heard someone behind him whistling it too—so he turned around and saw that it was Paul Simon! I love that story, even though it's probably an urban legend.

Great image, I like the decorative detail on the supports. I went to Wiki to learn more about this interesting structure.

ReplyDeleteWow this is an amazing shot. And the industrial building at the back added the detail of the view. Happy Sunday!

Even if it is an urban legend, it is a great story - and a great Bridge post, Alexa!
