Description: The Pulaski Bridge, a vital infrastructure in New York City, spans the Newtown Creek, connecting the boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens. Opened in 1954, this bascule bridge facilitates both vehicular and pedestrian traffic, linking the neighborhoods of Greenpoint in Brooklyn and Long Island City in Queens. Named after Kazimierz Pułaski, a Polish hero of the American Revolutionary War, the bridge has undergone several renovations to accommodate increasing traffic and enhance safety. Its strategic location and functionality make it an essential conduit for commuters and a significant landmark in the urban landscape of New York City.
