Was ist die Third Avenue Bridge?

The Third Avenue Bridge is a swing bridge — a moveable structure that rotates horizontally to allow river traffic to pass. Completed in 1898 and rebuilt in 1898-1899, the current bridge dates from the early 20th century and is operated by the City of New York. It's one of several moveable bridges crossing the Harlem River between upper Manhattan and the Bronx.

Wenn die Brücke für den Flussverkehr geöffnet wird, wird der Fahrzeugverkehr blockiert, bis sie wieder geschlossen wird. Der Kamera-Feed fängt diese Momente ein, die passieren, wenn Schlepper, Lastkähne oder Freizeitschiffe passieren müssen. Die Brückenöffnungen dauern etwa 10 bis 15 Minuten und erfordern eine Voranmeldung beim Brückenbetreiber.

The Bridge's Location and Traffic Role

Die Third Avenue Bridge transportiert den Third Avenue-Verkehr zwischen Manhattan und Bronx und verbindet den Geschäftskorridor der Third Avenue in East Harlem mit der Third Avenue im Süden (Bronx). Die Third Avenue in diesem Abschnitt der Bronx verläuft nach Norden durch Mott Haven und setzt sich als bedeutende Geschäftsstraße im Süden der Bronx fort.

For vehicle traffic, the Third Avenue Bridge is one of the lower-traffic-volume Harlem River crossings because it doesn't serve a major highway connection and it's a moveable bridge (which means it can be delayed by river traffic). Higher-volume crossings nearby include the Triboro Bridge to the east and the Madison Avenue Bridge and Third Avenue Bridge cluster further west.

Die Harlem River Crossings als System

Zwischen der oberen Manhattan und der Bronx gibt es etwa ein Dutzend Überquerungen des Harlem River, von der Triboro Bridge (der größten) bis hin zu mehreren beweglichen Brücken wie der Third Avenue Bridge. Der NYC Live Command Center überträgt Kamerabilder von mehreren dieser Kreuzungen, und wenn man sie gemeinsam betrachtet, erhält man einen Eindruck davon, wie sich der Verkehr über den Harlem River verteilt.

On days when a major crossing is constrained , the Triboro has a traffic incident, or the Major Deegan upstream is backed up , the smaller bridges like Third Avenue absorb some overflow traffic. The camera at Third Avenue Bridge shows this overflow effect when it happens: a noticeable increase in vehicle volume on a structure that normally operates well under capacity.

Der South Bronx an der Third Avenue

Das von der Kamera der Third Avenue Bridge aus sichtbare Viertel South Bronx ist das Gebiet Mott Haven und Hunts Point. Dieser Abschnitt des Bronx hat seit dem Tiefpunkt der 1970er Jahre erhebliche Veränderungen erfahren, insbesondere im letzten Jahrzehnt mit anhaltenden Investitionen in Wohn- und Gewerbeimmobilien.

The camera shows the transition between the bridge structure and the South Bronx street grid: Third Avenue in this area has a lower building scale than the Manhattan side, more surface parking, and a commercial strip that reflects the neighborhood's working-class character rather than the tourist or office-district character of the neighborhoods across the river.

Zuschauen, wie sich eine Brücke öffnet

One of the more unusual things visible on the Kamera der Third Avenue Bridge , less common on the large fixed bridges , is the bridge opening cycle. When a vessel needs to pass through the Harlem River at this point, the bridge operator receives a request, barriers drop on the vehicle roadway, and the bridge span swings open on its central pivot. Waiting vehicles at both the Manhattan and Bronx ends stop, the vessel passes, and the bridge swings back to its closed position before vehicle traffic resumes.

This takes place a handful of times per day depending on river traffic, and the camera captures it in full. Watching a moveable bridge in operation is a piece of New York infrastructure that most residents who don't cross at this specific point have never seen.
