Closing the Tappan Zee Bridge Video Captures Last Ride

Watch the last ride across the Tappan Zee Bridge, just before the project team transferred Westchester-bound traffic to the Governor Mario M. Cuomo Bridge on Oct. 6.

Just before 10 p.m., Nyack resident Seth Kestenbaum drove his 1929 Model A Ford Phaeton across the Tappan Zee Bridge, marking the final ride from Rockland to Westchester.

Tappan Zee Constructors has already begun demolishing the landings of the old bridge so it can connect the second span to land. The second span is scheduled to open next year.

You can view more of the latest photos in the project gallery, or watch the first four years of construction fly by in just two minutes.
