The Tappan were a tribe who lived along the west bank of the Hudson River. Leave it to a phony woke liberal to try to remove a vestige of local Native heritage. Is it the increasingly credible allegations of sex abuse? Or a realization of Killing Fields Cuomo's culpability in the deaths of those nursing home residents during the plandemic?
oh boy...they are going to cancel the whole Cuomo family.
Just waiting on the shoe to drop on Fredo
The Tappan Zee is named for an American Indian tribe from the area called “Tappan”; and zee being the Dutch word for “sea”.
After this episode yes they will change it back.
I don’t know anyone in the area who calls it anything other than the TZB. I still call the Met Life Building the Pan Am building.
RE: Rockland assemblyman introduces bill to change Cuomo Bridge name back to Tappan Zee
Tell me about it. I remember when the bridge that connects the New York City borough of Queens to Manhattan along the East River was called the 59th Street Bridge. It then was renamed to Queensborough bridge ( aptly I believe ). It was then renamed to the Ed Koch Bridge. Now, in order to avoid confusion for non- New Yorkers, they call it the LOOONG name of Ed Koch-Queensborough Bridge.
Yup. They’re trying to erase the entire Cuomo legacy from the party. Cuomo is finished politically. I wonder if an arrogant SOB like him will take this lying down. Not only is the Deep State going to drive him from office, but they’re going to erase the legacy of his father too. The Cuomo name will never be mentioned again in Democrat circles!
I still call it the Tappan Zee. Everybody I know calls it that.
He has to be shell shocked. Protected all his life
I am a bit shell shocked at how fast they are taking him down.

‘One day you’re cock of the walk... the next, a feather duster.’
Governor Tappan will be happy to get his name back on the bridge. He was one of the first Dutch governors of New York.
You rascal you. I’ll bet you still call it “Uncle Ben’s Rice” and “Aunt Jemima’s Syrup,” too.
Cuomo has outlived his usefulness to the Deep State. The same thing I think can be said for Gavin Newsom too. Not a coincidence that both of them are in political hot water at the same time.
I hope they change it back. What hypocrisy that names are changed to protect Native Americans, but this name was changed from Native Americans to honor a Democrat hack politician.
The Mystery Of Tappan Zee: Why Build A Bridge Where The River's Wide?
I haven’t lived in a long time. On visits I don’t go up to Rockland County. I’m glad to know ny ers call it the Tappan Zee. So obnoxious to come along and take the name and give it to someone. An abortion promiter. The worst people in history.
