Here are three photos of the New 3rd Avenue Bridge while it was being floated into place in 2004. These photos were taken from the Bronx shore. The Tribrough, Willis Avenue and the old 3rd Ave bridge are in the background. Its not every day you see a bridge on a barge!

awesome! i was particularly psyched to see this post, as ive always been interested in this bridge. i rowed under it daily for 4 years in the 90s, and it (and some of the other bridges on that stretch) was under repair even back then, haha. i never knew they could just float in a new bridge like that, but go figure. it makes sense.

Elevator, Part 2


This -- well, four of these -- are what makes the elevators run in my building. Going down. The shutoff switch. These things would periodically shoot sparks.
