Beautiful span...
On the move.
The George Washington Bridge, stretching across the Hudson River to connect New and New Jersey, opened 85 years ago today, nytimes.com reported today.
The span I've used many times over the years was the longest suspension bridge at it debut in 1931.
The day after the George Washington Bridge opened 56,312 cars and 100,000 pedestrians crossed by "pleasure car, and service car, on foot, motorcycle and roller skates, and one citizen was on a horse," The New York Tines reported.
