62. We use it all the time to visit my son and his family in Connecticut
Sun Nov 1, 2020, 04:13 PM
Nov 2020

traveling from NJ. When I was growing up, we took the Tappan Zee bridge from Brooklyn and Queens to upstate.
I was somewhat sad to see it go. I loved the low approach where it felt like you were driving on the surface of the Hudson for a while.

I do admit that the Mario Cuomo bridge is very spiffy though.
