My brother sent this video along. It's all about the Poughkeepsie rail bridge, which has now been converted into the Walkway Over the Hudson. I'm looking forward to walking it - sooner rather than later - as I was a proponent of this project.
The bridge had sat there as an eyesore since a fire damaged it in 1974. I can remember seeing it as we drove up and down US Route 9, which passes below it. So to see this historical structure saved and utilized as parkland is really cool.
Here's the video, and as a reminder for our Facebook friends: visit the blog at http://steelyankee.blogspot.com. Videos that I post here don't translate from the bloggo to Facebook.
