the reason they don't build a new one is because of the NIMBYs on either side who don't want it. they block it, and tie it up in the courts with environmental impact studies - while the current bridge decays.

Robert Moses would know how to handle NIMBYs!

Being from CT, when I have to drive to points south I usually take the TZ over to either the Palisades or Garden State. I just started to notice some of the rather large homes going up on the west side just south of the bridge so I can only imagine they've got their lawyers all tee'd up for a fight.

Anyway, it's so nice to know I could wind up swimming my way across one of these trips. Maybe Uncle Teddy could give some seminars on how to survive that. Cheers!
