Only from certain viewpoints was it easy to see that, indeed, the old entrance roadbeds had been removed. This recent event was the most obvious evidence of the demolition of the old Tappan Zee Bridge, now being clearly visible from both Irvington and Tarrytown. Pieces of the old bridge will be sunk off Long Island <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2018\/04\/29\/nyregion\/tappan-zee-bridge-artificial-reef.html\">to create artificial reefs<\/a>, while 130-150 sections of the road surface will be <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailyfreeman.com\/general-news\/20180514\/tappan-zee-bridge-deck-panels-head-north-for-projects-in-orange-county\">reused in upstate New York<\/a>.

The next evening, May 9, I went to Kingsland Point Park in Sleepy Hollow to get the view from the north. From Kingsland Point my grandmother Edith Stein Downing produced a number of watercolor paintings showing the construction of the Tappan Zee Bridge in the 1950s. I have blogged about these wonderful images before &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hudsonvalleyruins.org\/rob\/?p=1766\">click here to view them<\/a>. Though many New Yorkers probably are glad to see the old Tappan Zee Bridge go away, these treasured family paintings connect the bridge with our &#8220;Nana&#8221; and tinge with sadness the disappearance of this landmark that graced for so long the Hudson River view from Tarrytown, where several generations of our family have lived. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hudsonvalleyruins.org\/yasinsac\/tarrytown\/TZB-2018-010.JPG\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hudsonvalleyruins.org\/yasinsac\/tarrytown\/TZB-2018-011.JPG\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hudsonvalleyruins.org\/yasinsac\/tarrytown\/TZB-2018-013.JPG\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hudsonvalleyruins.org\/yasinsac\/tarrytown\/TZB-2018-015.JPG\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\nView through fencing at the perimeter of the former General Motors factory site.

In her painting and my photograph, one of the spans is in the water just below the towers (on the left in the painting, at far right in the photograph). Where before the span was about to be hoisted now it has just come down. Of course now there is a new bridge in the way, and a pedestrian bridge connects the Tarrytown Lighthouse with the shore. Soon the Tappan Zee Bridge will be gone entirely. The new bridge does not yet entirely interest me as a visual subject. When I return to Kinglsand Point and old Tappan Zee Bridge is gone, I&#8217;ll have to be content with photographing the lighthouse, sunsets, and silhouettes.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hudsonvalleyruins.org\/yasinsac\/tarrytown\/TZB-2018-021.JPG\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hudsonvalleyruins.org\/yasinsac\/tarrytown\/TZB-2018-026.JPG\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hudsonvalleyruins.org\/yasinsac\/tarrytown\/TZB-2018-014.JPG\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hudsonvalleyruins.org\/yasinsac\/tarrytown\/TZB-2018-034.JPG\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Tuesday May 8, 2018, the central span of the Tappan Zee Bridge was lowered onto a barge and taken away.
