13 MOST AMAZING BRIDGES IN NEW YORK CITY
• 13 Most Amazing Bridge...
My apologies for the error on #7 (Queensboro Bridge). I didn't realize it until after uploading.
*Correction - The Queensboro Bridge is a TOLL-FREE bridge (not a toll bridge). It’s one of a set of four TOLL-FREE bridges that span the East River.
LoL I caught that then at the end i realized what meant to say
You are forgiven! Just don’t let it happen again! Lol!
Always be the 59th Street Bridge to me. Great video.
Yeah I like to see part 2
Thank you
How about NYC tunnel for part 2 that will be nice.i will love to hear all the details about them
Any bridge in New York is amazing if you don't have to pay to cross it.
Gone are those days. Nobody rides free anymore 😊
Omg this was the best comment on this feed😂 I don't know how it didn't get more likes.u must live in NY too lol
Hahaha 😂😂
You ain't lying about that them expensive ass toll fees
I'm from Kansas and I'm obsessed with the bridges of NYC. I've been on most of these but going into midtown Manhattan on the Queensboro gave me goosebumps. The heart of the city right before your eyes. Such a sense of awe and endless possibilities. Your city is amazing.
I remember one night in the late 90’s me and a friend drove from a club In Manhattan over the Queensboro on the outer lane. I was a bit tipsy and we were speeding . That outer lane was crazy.
No way, the Manhattan or the Williamsburg Bridges are the best view of magic.
@@yankees29 how do you get to the outer lane? I can never find when I go.
@@Conrailfan2596 this was coming back over from Manhattan into Queens. It was late at night idk maybe it’s not always open
My first near-ground-level view of Manhattan as a new immigrant to America was from this Queensborough Bridge. My mother's peeve was how convoluted the approach to it was. We had arrived in JFK International Airport and we were then going to Morningside Heights. The "old-New-York" driver replied that it was done to avoid tolls.
" Did you know there is a George Washington Bridge and a Washington Bridge both in NYC?
I think the W@shington Bridge crosses the H@rlem River..
@@MVR326 yup at 181st
Wow!
As a native New Yorker, you nailed it! Thank you for sharing.
Awesome! Thank you!
The Brooklyn Bridge is not a pure suspension bridge; it is a combination cable-stayed and suspension bridge.
Harvey Fishman thank you
Not really. It is a suspension Bridge that utilizes Diagonal Cable stays to take a small load off the vertical suspender ropes. The stays only support maybe 1/4 of the live and dead loads.
@@grillage2 it’s older than the Tower Bridge a bascule bridge and suspension bridge
Brooklyn was actually a separate city when the bridge was built. That's the reason Brooklyn, is "Kings County."
What does Brooklyn being called kings county have to do with that?
@@mike_404 Just shows that it used to be a city on its own.
@@SquidCena But every borough is part of a county
@@mike_404 Probably because they were once their own cities? Thats why Staten Island has its own rail road as well probably
@@SquidCena yea true
Awesome video. Love the comments here too. Let me share a personal story of the Williamsburg Bridge. I haven't drove on the Willy B in decades as I left NYC in 1985. Back in the early 80s when I first got my driver's license (actually leaner's permit at 16). The cars back then were fairly large compared to today's cars. I first learned to drive in a 76 Chevy Monte Carlo, pretty big size. When you drive on the Willy B, my car and another of the same or larger (Caddy's, Olds, etc...) When you are side by side with another car (and in the inside car lanes, not the outer lanes of the bridge), you have about maybe 6-8 inches of free space. I kid you not. Two cars driving parallel can basically be talking to one another, it was that close. You don't have room for mistakes. And you best keep your nerves with no sudden moves. At night time, you will see novice drivers taking up the middle lane because they are not used to it. I am sure with today's smaller size cars, there is adequate space. Miss NYC and driving on the Willy B. Thanks again for this video.
It is a beautiful view on the Brooklyn Bridge I am so scared of heights but I must walk that bridge whenever I ever get to visit New York
The conclusion here is the old saying, "they don't build em like they used to."
Man that's for dam sure!!! They don't make anything like they used to, not even folks in public office right!!!
Idc the Triboro Bridge will forever be known as the Triboro Bridge 🤣
Proper spelling is Triborough. No such word as boro.
@@grillage2 you must be the new guy. Only real New Yorkers will get that. But thank you Mr. Spellchecker
@@grillage2 What about the Queensboro? In "The Power Broker", Robert Caro spelled it "Queensborough" and somehow it jarred me.
Visited New York a few years back (being Dutch) and rode a bike across Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan Bridge. Loved it! Hope to be back one day!
Verrazano will always be my favorite 😍 😍
Nice bridges, but Delhi's Signature bridge is the best bridge ever built. It has beautiful led light show and a glass chamber for bird eye view.
Love All The New York Bridges!! Thank You!!
Came for the bridges, stayed for the sweet voice
Used to live in whitestone and i could see the bridge from my window at night. I love this city i miss living there. Thank u for the video.
“Yea whatever, it’s just the Queensboro bridge to us!”
😁👍🏿
Soo very helpful! Thanks so much for breaking this down so simply!!!
Part 2 sounds like a good plan. Looking forward to it. Ty. Bridges are awesome.
I love this. I love my city. You know Brooklyn had to come first though 🔥🔥
3:01/ Fun fact, the Verrazano Narrows Bridge is officially longer than the Golden Gate Bridge by the length of a bicycle! 😎🇵🇷🇺🇸📽🗽🦂
60' is a pretty long bicycle
You really hit the hammer on the old nail with this video and as proud songwriter of the Manhattan Bridge song(which I will gladly share your way), I am very touched that you included the beloved MB in this video. Thank you for a wonderful show and tour!
I have such memories of the GW. I used to go to Saturday school in Jersey and every weekend we would cross the bridge in the morning + evening. My family even refers to it as just "George". Also I wanted to mention that the views of Manhattan from the Throgs Neck and Whitestone bridges are unparalelled!
A+. Interjecting the location maps was excellent idea.
I cross over the Goethals and Verrazano frequently. I used to live near the Throgs Neck and I had a beautiful view of it. I still remember Method of Sections, Method of Joints, and the Free Body Diagram from Statics class (which is how bridges, among other structures, are analyzed); good times!
The bridge’s your saying is my favourite
@@muhammadghias9547 they’re beautiful, aren’t they?!?
Thanks for the video very informative I love NYC
NYC has the most beautiful bridges
Brings back many childhood memories of trips to NY, very well done. I thing the number of cars that go over the GW is a little higher though ;) Keep the great videos coming.
please do a part two that was very interesting
Love ur videos. Haven’t seen one in a while. Great
Thank you. Glad you like them!
Very, very informative!
Thanks for the accuracy, effort, and hard work.
I love all the bridges in NYC. I've walked the Brooklyn Bridge many times & I enjoyed every minute of it
Excellent work. Never disappointed by your videos.
Honorable mention: The Bayonne Bridge.
That’s not in NYC.
@@guidorrmc7618 That's Staten Island which is one of the five boroughs, spans from Staten Island (Port Richmond) to Bayonne NJ
@@gregggoldberg5058 We don't count Staten Island, Lol!! 😁
Great choice of bridges. I was fortunate, thanks to my US relative for having had the opportunity to visit the US and walked over your #1 bridge: The Brooklyn Bridge starting from the Dumbo. I highly agree it's NYC's most historic and iconic bridge and definitely among the world's most important bridges.
My favorite city but what about the tunnels?
Can't really show them in their best light. They're somewhat hidden under water.
I've missed your fantastic videos - I didn't realize you had started posting again! Welcome back! This was amazing! So many great places to visit, when it's safe to visit again!!
Thank you so much!
Thank you! So much for such an awesome video. Look forward to the other bridges you'll have on your next video.
In 2009 went with friends to NY and stayed in Manhattan 7 nights it was a Wonderful experience we went to 8 different places in the subway we also walked on the Brooklyn bridge 🌉 was so very awesome. Would love to go again and visit more of NY we had a Great time there also watched Lion King live show.
I used to live across the street from Inwood Hill Park. I took many pictures of the Henry Hudson Bridge.
Thank you for putting High bridge bridge and telling it story .. i knew this story for 17 years since i came to this country .. always good to hear about it ..and 155th Macombs Dam Bridge was a better option because of the polo grounds and yankee stadium conection.
Thank you !!! You just reminded me of my childhood, now living in Pennsylvania! Thank you ❤️❤️❤️👍🏼
I wish New York City wasn't such a damn expensive place to live. It's obviously the coolest city in America
Queens & downtown & nj but first #1 queens is my favorite even though l,m from Washington heights & lived there!
Lovely bridge's! 🌌
Beautiful views 😍
loved this,great job!!
Glad you liked it!! Thank you.
I love your filming topics series on NY City and these bridges are the most fine bracelets of your city's bright lits symbolic jewels. 👍✌️🌞🌻🙂
Love it! I also like two pedestrian bridges, the green one over the Harlem River used in The Wiz, and the one near the Hudson tunnel, Manhattan side connecting to parts of tribeca- this led bride can be seen in Nelson Sullivan’s five Ninth Avenue RUclips 1980s vlog in the club kid outlaw Party fashion show video. These places have a great deal of meaning to NYC residents- who often are pedestrians with little car ownership
Dope
Well done!
Loved this video! I always learn something on this channel.
Brooklyn Bridge is nice but gets very crowded so biking and running over it can be a challenge, unless you go early or late.
My favorites are the GWB, Verrazano and Whitestone. Really beautiful views😍
Thank you and so true!
But no pedestrian
Snake jumped off the GW onto the oil tanker that held Metal Gear Ray
I have a real fascination with bridges. I have many pieces of art depicting them. To me, they are engineering marvels. It amazes me that the technology existed nearly 100 years ago.
Wow! Incredible. Very Beautiful!
Love this video love New York
Yes do a part two to this video.
Thank you for this wonderful video.
You narrated this ooh so perfect, and so professionally.. You made this so interesting to watch...Because sometime when people are narrating things they really o.d. on certain topics that make me jus not want to look at the stories or documentaries anymore...but you were awesome...and yea please make a part 2...please..im looking foward to it
So the Marine Parkway-Gil Hodges Memorial Bridge (which connect Marine Park, Brooklyn to The Rockaways, Queens) did not make the list. I say this because where I grew up in Brownsville, Brooklyn I was able to see not only the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge but the Marine Parkway-Gil Hodges Memorial Bridge as well from my 10th floor windows in the housing projects.
Totally missed the Goethals and it’s renovation really nice seeing it from the turnpike
Beautiful bridge
The Robling bridge in Cincinatti was the first stone tower suspension bridge. Really the prototype for the Brooklyn bridge.
The GWB connects to I95, but it is actually part of I80
I think the Henry Hudson BR goes over the "Spitten Duval" creek, means "spit at the devil"
@@blue9multimediagroup I was referring to how I've heard Sputen Duyval pronounced. The name does mean "spit at the devil"
Spuyten Duyval means spinning Devil.
@@cliffpadilla5871 Spitting Devil.
It would have been cool to touch on the other three major Staten Island bridges: the Goethals Bridge, Bayonne Bridge, and Outerbridge Crossing. They connect Staten Island to New Jersey, and the Goethals is arguably more important to Staten Islanders than the Verrazano as it's faster to get from Staten Island to Manhattan through New Jersey than through Brooklyn.
Great channel, interesting information, amazing views. Thank you so much, good luck!
Excellent video well done.
que maravillas!!!
Dear Narrator of the ALL NYC series of video’s: Thank You, ThankYou, Thank You . For your latest video production of the many famous landmark bridges in and around the N.Y.C. Metro area. It seems like it was only yestermonth that I was texting you on the that very subject. Now I’m not a native of the N.Y.C. Area, but your videos on the bridges were very informative as well as educational. KEEP UP THE VERY GOOD WORK! Now the next thing I’d like to see you produce on your series is some of the many neighborhoods I’ve heard about in New York. Like The Bowery, Flatbush and Hells Kitchen area of New York (the city that never sleeps). Once again THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!!
Thank you for your kind words. I will put your suggestions on my list!
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your videos!!!!!!!!!!! You are FANTASTIC!!!!
Thank you so much!!
excellent compilation
Small islands connected with the old bridges but all will last for a longer period of time from frequent cable management, heard about bridges but don't know about their numbers great to watch thank you.
AWESOME VIDEO! When I first saw the Hell Gate Bridge here, I thought I was looking at the Bayonne Bridge because of the architectural likeness, and too as much as I had been through all five boroughs of New York City, I had never heard of the Hell Gate until now. Amazing find! Yet again, what a very awesome video that brought so much nostalgia to me growing up. THANK YOU FOR THE UPLOAD!
When I was a kid my friends and I use to climb up the Hells Gate Bridge at night. That bridge has a staircase inside the towers on both sides. But now you can't do that anymore because they have locked the doors with cameras looking at the entrance. But I'll tell you what. It's a long walk up to get to the top. Three different types of stairwells. First is a long concrete stairway that starts at the entrance goes up around three to four floors into the inside of the tower. The there a steel staircase that's around eight flights up. Then you have to cross a cat walk to the spiral staircase thats around a good five to six flights up takes you all the way to the top. There's also access to go on the arch. The inside looks something like mid evil times. Really scary at night.
Thankyou
Very well researched and presented... nicely narrated too...!! Thanks for sharing...!!
She made a few mistakes
Good job. Thank you!
Thank you too!
Great video. You did awesome !!!
Thanks for watching!
Exactly what I used to think when I was a kid with the whitestone( it looks just like the Verrazano bridge just half the size.) Used to take it to Shea stadium. Throgsneck bridge New York's version of the Walt Whitman.
I grew up 1/2 mile from the Verrazano bridge and watched them build it in 1964. I think I still have pics of the tower on the Brooklyn side going up. It was half finished. Couldn't ride my bike under the bridge because they had it blocked off due to the construction.
I 💕 New York ....cheers from Pennsylvania 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍👍
Boy I miss MY FAVORITE CITY NYC AND IM A JERSEY BOY ❤❤
Good job!
First of all happy new year to you all and your loved ones. Excellent picture quality and great narration. I notice that the image is inverted between 0:08 and 0:15.
✊🏻THE VERRAZZANO IS MY BRIDGE ❤️ I have seen so many dazzling 🌅 just coming home on the 🚎 I ❤️ NYC
..... great job!
Thank you!
Aha! You used the corrected, updated spelling of the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge, that is two Rs and two Zs.
I LOVE THE GEORGE WASHINGTON MY FAVORITE 😊
When it comes to the Verrazano Narrows Bridge, you see it from even North from the Coney Island/Sea Gate area of Brooklyn.
It’s really beautiful from the side!
The Hell Gate is also similar to the Arrigoni (formerly Middletown-Portland) Bridge in Middletown CT
love this video! great job.
Just like Sixth Avenue, that NO ONE refers to by its official name Avenue of the Americas, no New Yorker ever calls The Triboro Bridge the RFK!
RFK was a “ Carpetbagger”. The only reason that he was the Senator from New York was, because his family had a summer house in Riverdale. He never really did anything for NY except run fir President.
@@juanmonge8 RFK's Senate campaign was for nothing but giving him a platform to run for president in 1968 and in 1964 every Democrat in the country was falling all over themselves weeping for the poor suffering Kennedy family. There was a seat up for election in NY in '64 so he went for it - the same way the other carpetbagger Hillary Clinton did in 2000!
And let’s not forget we don’t call Ed college Bridge the Queensborough bridge we called the 59th St. bridge
Good job, this is pretty much my list. I did have the Manhattan Bridge as No. 4.
#1 - The Brooklyn bridge. I know what you’re thinking, the Brooklyn bridge
Lol, you caught that!
you forgot three other bridges on Staten Island that connect to New Jersey
I think this video focuses only on bridges within NYC proper.
She mention only 13 out if 45 bridges in new York City
The GW goes to NJ. I was hoping to see the new Gothels
14:17/ Fun fact: That triumphant archway had a mirror image archway on the Brooklyn side that was demolished in the 1960's. Like its sister gateway, the Brooklyn archway had 2 massive statutes flanked on both sides. The statues are preserved for all to see. Just head to the Brooklyn Museum of Art off of Eastern Parkway. You can't miss theme! 😊🇵🇷🇵🇷📽🦂🗽
Excellent coverage of the NYC bridges! You forgot to mention the three Staten Island bridges that connect to New Jersey. The are; the Bayonne Bridge, the Goethals Bridge and the Outerbridge crossing. You might want to include them in your next video. Again, thanks for such a great video!
Thank you. Good call!
I’m a new Yorker and I have been on many bridges and roads
Fascinating and informative. To truly know NYC, you have to know its bridges. You made a lot of tough choices, and managed to distill a ton of great information here. Thanks for your good work! BTW, did you know the East River is not really a river? It's actually an estuary (yeah, I know...potayto, potahto).
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the tip!
Even more accurately, the East River is a tidal strait connecting the harbor (or Upper Bay) with Long Island Sound.
I think you're correct that it is an estuary, in that it is affected by tidal movement of water, but so is the Hudson from New York to Troy. Estuary is most commonly used to describe what the lower Hudson is: the mouth of a freshwater river that flows into a sea or ocean, leading to a zone of brackish water (not freshwater, but not as salty as seawater) where the two blend together. If not for the flow of freshwater into the NYC area waters, I think the East River would be entirely seawater. But as it is brackish and flows with the tides, it can be called an estuary.
Yes indeed. The Hudson River is fresh water that runs south into the NY Harbor and the East "River" is not a river at all because it's just a waterway that leads from the harbor into the Long Island Sound. There have indeed been porpoises seen in the East River as well as crabs and whatnot.
The new Goethals bridge connecting Elizabeth NJ to Staten Island is so beautiful. Would have been nice to see it in this lineup.
I never knew where the name came from. It is named after George Washington Goethals. A civil engineer who built the Panama Canal and was the first Governor of the Panama Canal zone.
He had a hand in many other projects. A great man.
Good information
The Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge is also proof that the Earth isn't flat. The two towers are slightly farther apart at the top than at the bottom due to the curvature of the Earth.
True statement!
Cool fact!
1 5/8" difference between the TOP of the Towers and the base.
Makes sense. I believe the Golden Gate is 6 inches difference.
@@roadtoad7704 Golden Gate is about one inch. Not 6 inches! The main span is 60 feet shorter than Verrazzano.
New York City more beautiful city i love
