Catching sight of the approach spans for the Kosciuszko Bridge replacement under construction, it hit home. The new bridge is going to cross the Newtown Creek at a lower altitude than the present (c. 1938) bridge. Sad to lose that magnificent, if brief (depending on traffic conditions), westward view of Manhattan--and more limited eastward one of the Newtown Industrial Valley. Enjoy it while we have it, pothole (trenches) and all.
