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.

59th Street Bridge
aka the Queensborough Bridge—it's the entry point into Manhattan for the NYC Marathon runners. They're talking about renaming it for former mayor Ed Koch. Sorry—I love you, Ed, but we all know everyone's gonna keep on calling it the 59th Street Bridge (ba-da-da-da-da-da-da, feelin' groovy). [You can see more Sunday Bridges here.] |
