This is the Washington Bridge. I remember going over it first to get to the George Washington Bridge. The idea for the Washington Bridge - initially called the Harlem River Bridge - originated from Andrew H. Green, a New York City parks commissioner who was an early advocate of creating Greater New York. During the 1870's, the Washington Heights section of upper Manhattan experienced rapid growth. Green believed that once streets were laid out and housing was constructed in Washington Heights, a fixed link would be necessary to carry traffic between Manhattan and the Bronx.
