  • I walk the George Washington Bridge, which connects New York to New Jersey. This walk was recorded at sunset, and the views of New York and New Jersey were stunning.
    From Wikipedia:
    "The George Washington Bridge is a double-decked suspension bridge spanning the Hudson River, connecting the New York City borough of Manhattan with the New Jersey borough of Fort Lee. The bridge is named after George Washington, the first president of the United States. The George Washington Bridge is the world's busiest motor vehicle bridge, carrying over 103 million vehicles in 2016. It is owned by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, a bi-state government agency that operates infrastructure in the Port of New York and New Jersey. The George Washington Bridge is also informally known as the GW Bridge, the GWB, the GW, or the George, and was known as the Fort Lee Bridge or Hudson River Bridge during construction.
    The George Washington Bridge measures 4,760 feet (1,450 m) long and has a main span of 3,500 feet (1,100 m). It had the longest main bridge span in the world at the time of its opening and held that distinction until the opening of the Golden Gate Bridge in 1937. "

    Remember playing Metal Gear Solid 2 as a child and the intro being on the bridge. Always figured how cool it’d be to walk across it, living in Washington Heights it’s only like a mile away from me, and this video is inspiring me to do it! (Not in the pouring rain while smoking though, not cool enough to keep up with Snake’s style)

    I did this walk once, and I must tell you, it was pretty scary to say the least. I was born and raised in the neighborhood where that Bridge is and saw it every day coming home from School. I'm glad that they have those chain link fences there now. I also did bike across the Bridge once and it's interesting to say the least.

    My sister and I (from Midiwest) was coming down the Merrit Parkway on our way to NJ and accidentally missed our turnoff and ended up on the GW Bridge. It scared me to death because I knew I would have to go into Manhattan in order to get back on track toi get to NJ. Well, being from Midwest, the thought of driving in NEW YORK CITY was a scary event - and I believed that the base of it was a scary place. I figured how to get back up on the brridge - not easily I might say - and now gives me good stories to tell, lol.

    1:20 I guess the no pictures signs must have been removed. I was stopped by Port Authority police back in 2005 for taking pictures. They pulled a gun (which is crazy!), patted me down, looked through my pictures, and ran my ID. I remember I took a bus back to Washington Heights because I was too scared to walk the bridge again.
    There was no net back then so it was definitely easier to take pictures though.
