Crossing Jamaica Bay
This a view from the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge across Jamaica Bay to Queens, New York. The bridge, not of spectacular construction is the Joseph Addabbo Memorial Bridge. It is unique in that it has lanes dedicated for pedestrian travel, bike travel and for fishing. That makes it a "people-friendly" bridge. Unfortunately, there have been complaints that fisherman often leave large amounts of debris in "their lane", but I did not see that on our trip. Joseph Addabbo was a congressman from this district for many years.
