The barricade at the top of the hill was open, then just above the bridge there was another barricade and a truck in the path. There were workmen there and I asked what was up, I got "What does it look like," as a response. Then I asked why the barricade at the top was open and was told, "one of you guys moved it." Thanks a lot guys. I rode through this morning, from the north end. The barricade at the top of the hill was open, then just above the bridge there was another barricade and a truck in the path.

While it was slated to be finished Spring 09, it's now been pushed back to Fall 09 (and who knows if that's accurate). Of course, the detour is still car-free through riverside park, but annoying nonetheless. Actually, the Hudson Greenway is still closed in the upper 80′s / lower 90′s.

Path users must climb the stairs on the north path, which seems not to have been swept of sand, glass and car parts for awhile.

Does anyone know about the Hendrick Hudson Bridge? The footpath across the Harlem River (from Inwood into Riverdale) was closed the last time I tried it. (A year ago?)

Earlier in the month, however, the signs were up but the way was clear. Good to know all the work is done. Thanks, Streetsblog!
