"George Clinton Kingston-Rhinecliff" is the official name for this bridge. [NYCroads]
This bridge was designed by David Steinman. [HistoricBridges]
The clearance at the center above mean high water is 152' (46.3m). Because of shortages of steel and funding, the construction of the Newburgh-Beacon Bridge was delayed until after this bridge was completed. [nycroads]
