I hope that a lot of people fill out this survey supporting late night hours for the bridge. It's not just a tourist attraction is a transportation link. Also, having people use the bridge (legally) at night will make the parks on both sides much safer. Thanks for posting this, Brad!

It leads down to a walkway that's suspended from the bottom of the bridge all the way across the river. You can see straight down to the highway and water below. Also under there are three pipes that used to bring Croton water from the Bronx to Manhattan. Pretty cool stuff. I've been in that manhole shown in the picture.
