I was visiting from Phx but I am a displaced NYer from LI. I had not been to Tarrytown since a kid with my Uncle driving and I think back then we took a long way around anyway coming down from the Bear Mtn bridge. Going over the Tappanzee/Cuomo bridge in an unfamiliar rental car was terrifying. It is so high!

Try the Newburgh-Beacon bridge. At night.

I remember going over the old Talmadge Bridge into Savannah when I was 10, before I-95 was completed in the area. My uncle was driving, and my aunt and mother were probably terrified. That final hill to the top on southbound U.S. 17 seemed to go straight up!

I still remember seeing the bridge looming prominently over the Savannah skyline while we were headed outbound on I-16.
