Where Is Whitestone Bridge?

Where Is Whitestone Bridge?

The Bronx–Whitestone Bridge is a suspension bridge in New York City, carrying six lanes of Interstate 678 over the East River. The bridge connects Throggs Neck and Ferry Point Park in the Bronx, on the East River's northern shore, with the Whitestone neighborhood of Queens on the southern shore.

Can you walk on the Whitestone bridge?

Both bridges, unfortunately, lack pedestrian access (the Triborough does have pedestrian access); the Bronx-Whitestone has buses, but the Throgs Neck doesn't even have that.

What two boroughs are linked by the Whitestone bridge?

The proposed suspension bridge would cross the East River and provide a vital connection between the boroughs of Queens and Bronx. It would give thousands of motorists the ability to avoid heavily populated areas of western Queens, when traveling between Long Island, New England or upstate New York.
