A bridge reborn
When this storied bridge in New York state replaced its famous predecessor in 2017, some locals bristled as it was christened with a big name in local politics rather than its traditional title. Indeed, most New Yorkers still call the Governor Mario M. Cuomo Bridge by its unofficial title, the Tappan Zee Bridge—after what the Dutch named this unusually wide stretch of the Hudson River. Whatever label you put on it (or its predecessor, also officially named for a late governor), the twin cable-stayed bridge is the longest span in the state, tying the east bank village of Tarrytown with the town of Nyack three miles west.
