NEW YORK HARBOR - 2010 - PAGE 187

Hell gate from behind Mill Rock - click here for a video of this Harlem River trip

Ward's Island Footbridge ahead
Triboro Bridge ahead. (I think they want us to call it the RFK now)
We are headed for the Willis Ave Bridge jobsite and this is the first time I have ever had an exit sign for the tow. Usually we have to try to figure out where we are going. It is so much easier with the signs and exits.
Willis Ave ahead. The spans at the swing are blocked so we have to use the port side span.
25 ft of clearance so we have to duck down
The old Willis Ave bridge is sitting on two barges in the Harlem River. I bet you could get them cheap. Great holiday gift for someone who has almost everything.
The excavator grabbed us and brought us in
Third Ave Bridge
Making up to the loaded barge and pushing her back to Claremont Terminal
