The High Bridge Coalition

The dream of being able once again to walk over the High Bridge took a giant step toward realization in April 2007, when Mayor Bloomberg announced that New York City will restore and reopen the bridge. The High Bridge is New York?s oldest standing bridge and the most celebrated part of the famed Old Croton Aqueduct. Since 2001, the High Bridge Coalition has led a campaign to give this pedestrian bridge, a city and national landmark, new life as a great public space and greenway link.
